UKSB Google Merchant: The column delimiter not detected

Hi there,

I am using the UKSB Google Merchant, which was working perfectly and populating Google Base as expected. Recently however i am getting a 'Delimiter Detection Error' in Google Base saying that 'The column delimiter could not be automatically detected from your feed. To select a column delimiter, click edit next to your feed name in your account and select the correct option'

Does anyone have any idea what this means? I have looked for 'edit' next to the feed name, as stipulated in the error message but can't work out what it is referring to?

Would appreciate any help - Google Base is now way out of date and i desperately need to update it :-)
Many thanks

I got this error once on one of my feeds. I deleted the feed in google and reset it up and never have had the error again. Not sure if I had set something wrong on that one or google just misread it or something.

Thanks. At the moment though the 'Data Feed URL' from opencart is not displaying anything (completely blank) when the URL is copied into IE and it shows the characters '' when copied into FireFox. I think that is the root of the problem, but have no idea why that is not working - the URL specified is: http://www.storeurl.co.uk/index.php?rou ... rrency=GBP

Is that what it is supposed to look like? It was working up until recent weeks.......
