Replacement File Structure

The text file you import to provide the replacement table must meet the following specifics:

  • The text must include data for two columns:
    • Column 1: the value to replace
    • Column 2: the new value
  • The column text must be separated with a tab character.
  • The column headers will be ignored.
  • The file must be encoded in UTF-8.
Example:

Replacement file:

Average score    New average score
4.99    5
4.99    4.69
4.97    4.51
4.92    4.49
4.91    4.47
4.88    4.40
4.85    4.35
4.84    4.30
4.84    4.25
4.79    4.20

Note: The decimal separator depends on the locale. For English, the default separator is the decimal point (.).

Note that the system interprets a single question mark ? as <null> (null value). Take this into account if your data contains <null> values that you need to replace with other values, or if you need to replace some values with <null>.
