  2. Default Re: Data Merge Select Data Source Error

    Another type of Data Source Error:

    I'm getting the error repeatedly that my .txt file is not a supported file type or is empty. But I know that it has records and it was saved from Excel, just like the last one I used, which works correctly. Any ieas why one particular file would be unusable?

    If it's in Excel, save it in CSV or Workbook.

    Indesign likes that better.
