Data file to Sample

Question

I'm trying to insert a data file to generate a sample and am running into a snag which reads: "Please specify a non-zero duration for the generated waveform before inserting it into the edited waveform.

As far as I can tell, my file does not have any zeros.

I saved it as "tab delimited text" from an Excel file which functions in other situations as a TSV file.

Wondering what kind of data file I can use to insert to generate samples.

I've just tried the same thing with a TSV file I generated from LibreOffice and I get the same result as you do.

My TSV file is 4096 items long and I inserted into the sample editor 4096 samples of silence then selected that as the range and tried importing the data and I still get the  "Please specify a non-zero duration..." window.
