Duplicates in SAINT Classification exports

I'm having an issue with SAINT Classifications and exports. I've exported out by browser the Classification file, filled everything out, uploaded it, let it process and then a couple of days later I redownload it. I'm noticing a high percentage (about 30%) of things that should be classified showing as unclassified. When I export the file again about 30% of the blanks in the file are just duplicates. Any way to resolve?

Thanks! I thought that at first and wasn't it. But, thanks to you getting me to look at it again, it's all a formatting issue in Excel. We were feeding in 0718 in some instances and 718 in others. Excel took the 0 out.

Thanks again!

HI Michael,

have you checked they are exact duplicates.  I have come across a similar issue before because of a erroneous space.  E.g. The following two codes were listed:

"campaign_code"

"campaign_code "

Therefore I had to classify both entries
