Issues with Crawl Using the N Method

    Hi Everyone,

     I'm currently working on a crawl reading from an Excel worksheet. In the expression, I'm using the N method. I've attached a sample Excel sheet for reference. I'm data linking it starting from line 3: Scene 1, Text 1... <N+1>, Scene 2, Text 1... <N+2>, and so on for all the other scenes. I only have five scenes, but it reads all items in the Excel file, regardless of whether there are 20 or 200 items. After completing the crawl, it is also reading the second line in the Excel sheet, which states "miamidadecounty." a lot of times. I'm not linking that line, but it keeps showing up. This behavior didn't occur consistently during my testing, and it was also demonstrated to my supervisors. 

    Does the N method require at least 10 items in the Excel sheet for it to read and loop correctly? There are some meetings where we only have one item. I've noticed that if I add more items to the Excel sheet, it works properly. Thanks, Laz
