A couple more questions come to mind.

1. Are the added lines at the start or at the end? I suppose it's obvious to others, but it isn't to me.

2. Does the OP get the extra lines if specifying to start at row 1? This would suggest what you are, Rob, that there are rows with "content" below what looks like data - this is possible, the lowest-right corner seems to be the one where the cell was active when the workbook was saved - something like that, I never have quite grokked what Excel does here.

3. If OP doesn't get extra lines when specifying from row 1, then it suggests that the active range size is used to determine the size of the target.

Cheers

What defines the end of the file in Excel?
Is it the first row which has no data in any columns?
Is it the selected area? For example, if you do Print Selection.

I would make sure you select just the rows you want transferred.
If that doesn't do it I would remove at least 3 rows from the end. Maybe one of those rows had a value at some time and the value was deleted but not cleared.

Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. When I do a file transfer in ACS from the "active Excel sheet", if I tell it to transfer starting from row 4, for example, the transfer creates an extra 3 blank lines in the target file. Is there a fix for this? This is in version: 1.1.8.3 of ACS (2019-12-02), so it's not very old. -mark -- This is the Midrange Systems Technical Discussion (MIDRANGE-L) mailing list To post a message email: MIDRANGE-L@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: https://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo/midrange-l or email: MIDRANGE-L-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at https://archive.midrange.com/midrange-l.
