I am trying to read in an excel document and the frist row contains my column names. After reading in the document all I see in FME is Column 1, Column 2 and so on. I am not sure what I am doing wrong, other than when I use the Microsoft Excel ADO (deprecated) format the headers appear in FME, and when I use the newer excel format the headers do not appear in FME. I would appreciate any healp with this.

Hi Matt,
The new xls reader has a column that defines the headers you just need to input 1 if the header is the first row, see field names row

Thanks for the quick response! That worked great, now if I could get my module to work and actually output data I would be completely satisfied. Again, thanks for the answer, I really appreciate it!
