Trade Bill Import crashes

The Trade Bill Import function crashes ConQuest

Written by Andrei Ene

The Trade Bill uses a dash as the delimiter between Title Bills and Sub-Bills. If a Trade Bill is created from a project which has a dash in the bill name then the system will process this as a Title and Sub-Bill and try to create these. If several bills have the same text before the dash (ie, Block A - Prelims, Block A - Substructure etc) then the system will try to create two Title Bills in the Bill Structure with the same name, which is what's causing the crash.
​
To get around this, remove the dashes in the Trade Bill before importing it or replace them with another character, such as an underscore.
