Family Catalogs

I have been trying to get my window family to work with a catalog. When I try to insert the window into a wall an error comes up saying there is one less column than expected. I can not find the column it is looking for Please Help

Thanks

...Please Help...Make sure you have followed the syntax as shown in the help files and that the parameters you include in the catalog exist in the family. Spelling and case count.

Post the family and catalog so we can proof it for you?

The column you needed to get rid of is the parameter declaration for Rough Height. Rough Height is Height + .75 so it isn't needed in the Type Catalog. Here is the text file(with a lot of commas removed as well).

Joef - Thank you for helping, yours works great !!
I used Excel deleted the Rough Height column, Saved as .csv, then saved as txt file. My header looks like yours. Do you know if I am not saving correctly?

Thanks, Thanks Thanks
For some reason when the programs converts it places lots of commas at the end of the Txt file.

I haven't used Excel for creating a Type Catalog so I am not familiar with the kind of problems that can crop up. It would appear to be an excellent way to produce a catalog.
