weird category info

[njseo]

Hi,

I've tried dozens of times importing some test csv files, making sure they are in good form.

One problem I'm running into is that when I have WP make one of the columns a Category, then I get some really weird things happening. I get multiple categories even though I select only one field and have made sure there are no extra commas in the file.

I've had some strange unrelated words show up as a category too. Like 'christmas' or 'scanning' or 'Microsoft'.

it'll show like this sometimes

Category
Dell,christmas
or
AOpen, Microsoft

these words are not in my upload file. where could they be coming from?

Shoot the CSV you're using to nickmattern@gmail.com

99.999% chance it's the CSV
