I am adding more to the config file to enable direct import of csv files, but there are so may different csv download formats; every financial institution seems to have their own version! I'll deal with the most common options first such as lack of a header file (eg WellsFargo bank downloads) and differing column header names. The Python importers I have seen all work along these lines, but I am just no where near as proficient in Python programming as I am with cpp and go. Paul
