importing data from Excel

WE have just installed Power Church and are trying to import data from an Excel file. I set up all the field names in my spreadsheet, but when I try to do the import into the Family Mailing List I get an error that says that Microsoft Visual FoxPro has stopped working. Any ideas what this is? or How to fix/get around it? Thanks!

Two things:
1. What are you trying to import? Powerchurch will only import Mailing List Data, that is the Family name, address, phone number and main email address. It will not import any personal profiles.
2. I'm going to assume that you're saving the Excel file as a CSV (comma delimited) file. If so, how big is that file?
