Hi,
In SmartPLS 2, you must save csv file in format 2003. If you save in format 2007, this problem will accour.

Re: What does mean this error in SmartPLS
Beside saving the data in the correct format, it is important that every row and every column have the same number of values stored. It is not allowed to have spaces, i.e., you must have a numerical value in every cell, except for the first row, where you have your indicators.

Re: What does mean this error in SmartPLS
With the latest release (3.1.6), we also added more validations for the data files.
For files you already imported, there is now a "Re-Analyze" button.
If there are validation errors, these will be listed.

Re: What does mean this error in SmartPLS
Move the mouse on the red construct. A tooltip opens and tells you the problem. I suppost that no indicators are assinged.
