Attempting to load cryptocurrency file. I have downloaded a csv file from coinbase but TurboTax won't accept it. It says it is missing headers. How can I resolve this?

header failure is usually you have a bad format.

  • blank first line
  • TAB is the first character
  • two TABs where should be one
  • wrong spelling.
