Hi E?aut,

Thank you for your purchase and support, and about the support 
contact, I'll send you my direct contact details to assist you.

It's tricky to import Excel if there are different sense 
structures/hierarchies on each entry (the software can only really 
easily import Excel if fields are nicely in columns, but detecting 
hierarchies is a bit more complex) - ideally if I can get a copy of 
the data I can advise more specifically directly (or perhaps you did 
already send, I will check). I'll have to analyze the data to advise 
how best to solve it, and if it's easy or not to solve, as it 
depends on various things.

 - David
