Running Banjo - Observations in Columns and Variables in Row

[mprec001]

The older version of Banjo requires a single format for data Each row must contain the observation, and variables must be in columns.

Banjo 2 supports observations in columns and variables in rows, by specifying "yes" on the setting.txt file in the variablesAreInRows section.

Does setting variableNames to “inFile” works when variablesAreInRows set to "yes"?

The setting "inFile" appears to be specific to variables that are in columns. I do not think it would work if data were formatted in that way.

I have tried to run Banjo with 800 variables but when I convert my excel file into a text file using the Text (Tab delimeted)(*.txt) option, the variable titles and the values that are in a single row, in the original data, appear in different rows. It looks like my excel file surpasses the number of columns allowed in the text file. When I take the new text file and transfer it to the server using WinSCP, things get worse, adding to the previous problem some blank spaces in the first column. Because of these blank spaces, when I run Banjo I got the message "Need to have the same number of colums in all rows".
Does any one have encounter this restriction with the number of columns? If so, maybe should I switch to put variables in Rows?
Thank you,

I run Banjo with the variables in Rows and the variable names "infile" option worked very well. I left the variables in the first column and the system recognized them.
