Hi Sondos,
Your data set is problem (red). Please check missing value, data noise etc.
Or your validate this data in SmartPLS (double click red data => click validate => click save).

Hi Hengky, - I hope you can do something about this..the data set is in the .csv format, - and there are no missing values, - yet it becomes red. I double click the red and sees the data set.

I click "validate"...and then nothing....nothing happens?

- What is wrong?

Best Regards
Mattias

Hi,
usually It is caused by blacks, strings, simbols ($, %, #, NA, etc) or missing numbers, as some mean computed in the last row.

If you couldn't find the problem, copy the dataset to a new spreadsheet, sometimes this solve the problem.
