Unrecognized characters #11

Open krichards4 opened 10 years ago

krichards4 commented 10 years ago

Is there a way to make the tool list all the unrecognized characters or their locations if it finds them instead of the tool just stopping after the first one? I have spent an hour going from character to character with each attempt at running the tool. I put the file I am working on in your dropbox @jalisdairi .

@krichards4 I'll see what I can do. If you're still having problems export it to a csv first then run it through the tool. Should process faster and give you the errors all in one go. Same applies if you ever have a big dataset that takes awhile. You can export it from Excel as a csv first. Might just need to make the tool only accept csv files but I was trying to save you guys a step.

@jalisdairi would you like me to close this issue or keep it open for now?

jessicagood commented 10 years ago

@krichards4 I haven't looked at it yet since it's pretty minor compared to the other stuff I'm working on and isn't really a bug but a feature change. You can leave it open since nothing has been done about it yet.
