😂 I run my entire store on mobile! I used to use a laptop, but with the way
I’m constantly busy, it’s much easier, and it works just the same as it would
desktop!!

Do you use a phone or a tablet? I've heard of people using BrickLink on a
tablet before but when I try to use it on my phone I have to zoom in every time
I click something

Meanwhile as evidenced by all of the forum posts from newbies trying to figure
out how to use the site half of BrickLink users can't even figure out how
to use the desktop version of the site.

| Maybe try Brick Seller. The Part Out feature has many options and the process
is designed to refresh the page every 5 seconds to provide feedback on the progress
so there is no limit to the size of the set that can be parted out.
If you are not familiar with Brick Seller, you can find a link to it on the BrickLink
Inventory Software links here: https://www.bricklink.com/links.asp?catID=9

See the notes against the set listing
"Due to the massive number of lines (1000+) in the inventory of this set, the
BrickLink system will time out during the part out process. You must part out
the set in two different halves."

Right. I did not notice that. Thanks for pointing that out.
What a hassle.
Wish they would just make the servers fast enough to handle the actual sets that
Lego offers...

This happens occasionally. As Sylvain said, BrickLink seems to limit the number
of pages that a user can load per day. Perhaps try again later or try from a
different device if possible.

Have you browsed a lot?
Because there’s a (unspecified but low) limit on the number of pages you can
load per day. (Don’t ask me what a “day” is for the purpose of this limit.)

If you wish to sell Sets, like sets in sealed boxes, chose Set and not
Original Box for the Type.
Original Box is for the box itself, an empty box.

Scroll down to the change log and change the date and then download until you
get one that works.
Also, the main forum for Studio is https://forum.bricklink.com/ they will likely
be of more assistance with your specific issue.

| This is likely because your operating system is not up to date with the most
current version, you will have to download an earlier version of studio. This
can be done on the downloads page.

Spaces around the elements?
I mean, not inside some field-tags:
— [ITEMID]3001[/ITEMID] = okay
— [ITEMID] 3001 [/ITEMID] = k.o.
Hmm, just did a small test:
— spaces inside itemid = error on the ID (it doesn’t remove the spaces),
— spaces inside color = color N/A (it doesn’t remove the spaces, and transforming
a space into an integer gives 0),
— space at the beginning of itemtype = error on the item ID,
— space at the end of itemtype = it works.
Well, anyway, the parser is not robust enough, it should at least strip the texts
for all the fields before converting & using their values (well, debatable for
remarks: some people might use spaces for a reason…).
And I still don’t get why WL XML files can’t be uploaded like the other file
types (= you need to copy-paste).

The message OP has is really about not finding ‘3704’ in the catalogue.
That’s why I think maybe Excel added something (fine space?) around or inside
it and Perl just copied it.
BTW, ramicio2, your Perl script could check for the presence of non-pure ASCII
characters (ord 127).
(AFAIK, the WL can have unicode characters in the remarks field… but you don’t

That's a valid part number. Looks exactly the same as the example XML from
the help article. Formatting (EOL character, UTF-8, etc.) shouldn't matter,
as it's just copied and pasted.

What happens when you remove the block referring to that part?

Simple whitespace should not be a problem between tags (space, tab, linefeed,
return).
And the error messages are better now: they tell you when there’s a syntax error
(missing closing tag…).
The message OP has is really about not finding ‘3704’ in the catalogue.
That’s why I think maybe Excel added something (fine space?) around or inside
it and Perl just copied it.
BTW, ramicio2, your Perl script could check for the presence of non-pure ASCII
characters (ord 127).
(AFAIK, the WL can have unicode characters in the remarks field… but you don’t
use them )

How did you generate the file?
|
Looked at an instruction manual in PDF and typed into Excel all the parts manually.
Then exported to a CSV. Then used a perl script I quick made to go line by line
to spit out the XML.

Hmm, weird.
Are you sure there’s no special (invisible) character around 3704?
Have you tried without that item? If it blocks on the next item… and the next
and the next, then something is wrong with the formatting. If the others pass,
then it’s just that item.
(BTW, 3704 is the old (and expensive) version, maybe prefer 32062 instead.)
