Dynamic Input for a csv - Too many Field in Record #X;

Molson
6 - Meteoroid

Hello,

 

I have a file that I am choosing through the Directory tool due to needing the last file created.  I am then trying to use the Dynamic Input tool to read the csv file.  The issue I am having is that there are 2 rows that are summary data before the data that is actually comma delimited.  Any help on how to get the file to read in would be appreciated.

Thank you,
Melinda

after the Directory tool, use a Dynamic Input tool

 

Click the Edit button at top left, browse to a sample file

 

Then in option 8 Start Data Import on Line, set it to 3
