DBF Data Reader - empty rows, columns

I have a DBF file with the first row empty and other DBF files with blank numeric fields.

I'm doing a very simple graph: DBF Data Reader to Trash.

I have set the DBF Data Reader Policy to Lenient but get a Runtime exception of the form: in node DBF_DATA_READER0 : java.lang.RuntimeException : QTY cannot be set to : in record # 0 in field # 0 when parsing record #0 field QTY value " "

I have set the metadata field entries to nullable and have provided suitable defaults.

I've tried a filter to ignore the first row but the filter doesn't get called.

What else do I need to do?

cheers

Dave

  Hi !
  
  Could you, perhaps, send us the file (or its part) for testing (plus the graph and metadata) to david.pavlis <at> centrum.cz
  
  What you write you did seems like correct approach. To say more, we would need the data.
  
  Regards,
  
  David.
