import ascii to raster

Question

I am trying to import a ascii data to raster via the toll "ascii to raster", but a error is reported (ERROR 010067: Error in executing grid expression) during the conversion process. I open the ascii file by notepad, it seems that the header information is miss, but the data author claims that the file format is exactly correct. So I am wondering what is reason producing such error?

Every time I click on this link, it sends me somewhere that isn't a thread. This was the link I originally tried to use and is why I put up this question.

Hi,

Please try to convert your ASCII file to some other raster output format other than grid, may be an IMG or TIFF or a file geodatabase raster.

Yes, I tried, but it failed with the same error message:

010067 : Error in executing grid expression.

I think there are some problem with the fiel structure of ascii file, not the exporting file.

Thanks!
