[proFit-list] importing data from Apple's Numbers application

 From Numbers 09, importing of data works only in a very limited way.  
It works only if you copy/paste a selection of cells containing  
numbers only. If your selection contains: column titles, anything in a  
data cell that is not a number, columns formatted as text or currency,  
pro Fit will throw up the "Numerical data out of range or invalid. To  
paste text, change the column format to 'text' " error message. That'  
regardless of whether "select all" was done prior to pasting.

It's especially disappointing that pro Fit would not paste even a  
single column of numbers if it contains a column title.

pro FIt should really improve on this.

Exporting to csv is in the Share menu, the very last before Help.

Thanks,
       Davide
