Error importing SPSS data

Hi - when I try to import my data from SPSS (.sav file) "Unable to perform import - 'MultipleDataSets' object has no attribute '_settings'". It's just the one data set - not sure how to fix this? Any help appreciated

there's a bug in import which will be fixed in the next release ... but you shouldn't use 'import' anyway, just use 'open'.

Thanks for the bug confirmation. I teach my students use export/import to filter and delete preview and incomplete data (Status != 1 and Finished == 1).

Meanwhile, for some reason, many students spuriously continue import data into the default ABC blank sheet instead of using open.
