Error in importing " + " isn’t being recognized was created by RamilD
When importing the ASCII file, I noticed the “+” sign isn’t being recognized. In the description, I indicate levels with a leading plus (+) sign (e.g., +44.05), but after import, it shows only .05.

Hi RamiID,
To help me pinpoint the issue more accurately, please provide a short extract from the ASCII file where this occurs? Ideally, include:
Excel can sometimes misinterpret lines that start with a + sign, treating them as formulas or stripping the symbol during import. This is a known quirk, and seeing the raw data will help me in this process.
Kind regards,
Ian

- The affected line showing the + value (e.g., +44.05)
- One line above and one line below for context
