Hi Paul/GNUCash users, 

https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/FAQ#Importing.2FExporting_Data - this is
the GNC Wiki entry on importing (and exporting) data from GNUCash,
hopefully it is current... 

Speaking of which - what version of GNUCash are you using? 5.11 is the
current version - https://gnucash.org/download.phtml 

What operating system are you using GNUCash on?

Thanks,
