Can't import csv into IC-R1500

[Air490]

Hello all,
I have been trying to import some .csv files into my IC-R1500 using the Icom software. To put it in the easiest terms... nothing happens. I follow the instructions but the files don't import. Any ideas?

Although .csv supposedly means 'comma separated variables' Iv'e found some databases will only work with tab separation and others with semi-colons. Easy enough if you save from MS Excel but more difficult with a text file. One of my programs only likes a text file separated with commas, then change the ".txt" to ".csv"! Go figure!
