Some questions about data Loader

If i start Data Loader from Navigation -> Custom action and i click on (?) wiki page the link open the old manual of version 5.4 and not the last version 6.

If i click to Advance -> Download file -> Field List -> (row or column) i download a file not readable, i need to change the name as .csv

Following instruction on this help i need to upload into an existing project some tasks, i prepare the Excel csv file attached but when i try upload i have error. What is wrong ?

Thanks, regards.

Our documentation needs to be updated, our education team is doing this now.

The file downloads as an .XLSX document, which version of MS Excel are you running as it will need to support this file type to read the file on download?

To upload into an existing project, the custom action for Data Load must be run on the individual project as follows:

Thanks to your fast replay.

Question 1 : OK

Question 2 : when the file is downloaded is without extension, i need to add extension .xlsx (i use Office 2013 last update), after i can open it with Excel, but is not a problem.

Question 3 : OK, after some test i can now import  task inside an existing project after the other task or update it.

Best regards.
