Error when trying to open .dat file. Invalid DIAdem DAT file!

Hello,

I'm trying to open a .dat file with DIAdem, and receive the error that it cannot be loaded with "DD8x" and also note "Invalid DIAdem DAT file!" I'm not sure what the problem is with the .dat file, I haven't had this issue before. Here are the first few rows of the .dat file:

 

MTS793|MPT|ENU|1|2|.|/|:|1|0|0|A

Time Lat Displacement Lat Force String Pot
s mm N mm
0.024414063 0.65957093 -0.41774562 -0.15238895

 

Am I missing something in the file or something else?

Reading through the DIAdem Data Set Descriptions and expected file formats, nothing in your provided header/data looks wrong.  With that in mind, does this same loader still load .DAT files that you have been able to load successfully in the past?  If not, something is wrong with the DD8X plugin and if the old files do load correctly, we'll have to compare the syntax in the different files more closely to isolate why the message is popping up.
