Please post the actual error message (you can select the text in the
message box and paste to e-mail).  There is one message that I would
identify as ‘nothing to import’:

    File contains no (importable) data.

but I cannot see how this one could occur in attocube ASC format import.
If you get

    No module can load this file type.

then the file simply is not recognised as any known format.

Removing the headers never helps – except if you wanted to load it as
raw data, in this case it might make things marginally simpler.

The attocube import module identifies the files by the initial line

    # Daisy frame view snapshot

because this is what all files I have seen start with.  I do not have
any file format documentation so I do not know what it means, what else
the file header can start with or how to uniquely identify the files
otherwise.  If you have such information please share it.

Also, generally, I cannot fix the loading of problematic files without
seeing them.

If the data is just a list of the z-values (i.e. no x, y or other stuff)
then it does not matter how it is organised into lines, it should work
(or not) the same.
