If this solves the problem just transcribe the missing part of the image from the viewer. For all other problems with scans please report the problem to your syndicate coordinator and use +BREAK in the transcription where there are missing entries. In due course the scan will be corrected and you will be informed so you can revise the transcription. +<h4><a name=3j>3 (j)&nbsp;Why do I get "Unable to send invalid file" when trying to unload a file?</a></h4> +You will also have got one or more messages of the form: +<pre>Row N: Row is incomplete</pre> +which are rows for which you have not entered anything in the Age at Death field. If a field is empty you should transcribe ? for the field. Enter ? for Age at Death in each of the rows given in the message. <h3><a name=4>4 CORRECTING BATCH HEADERS WHICH HAVE WRONG DETAILS</a></h3>
