Scripted Excel Import - don't import 1st row?

[Perren]

Hi All,

I'm trying to setup an automated excel import (automated meaning no dialogs, importing from a variable defined path) and having an issue.

When setting up the import script step the "don't import first row" checkbox is greyed out. I can't get that option toggled on permanently in my solution. If I allow dialogs to happen I can get at the checkbox during script execution, set it and all is well, but can't do it for the automated process.

Is it because I'm defining my import source via a variable and not a hard coded path?

Any way around this fantastic issue?

You need to specify the file is an Excel file (the default is "All Available"), then it will offer you the first row option.
