H&R Block will not import a txf file (for 1099B info)

[New_Old_Dog]

When I attempt to import a txf file for the details on stock trades the software staes in can not find any 2013 data.  The file will import correctly into Turbo Tax.  The file detail seems to meet the standards for a V042 file.  Any solutions?

The issue has been resolved in my case.  The txf file which was provided by my brokerage firm contained an error for each record in the file.  By changing the type to TD from TS the records were imported without an issue.

One can open the txf file with note pad and info should look as follows:

V042
AMy stock data
D 02/28/2014
^
TD
N321
P100 shares of IBM
D4/3/2008
D2/1/2008
$4000.00
$3000.00

^

In my file the type was TS (for summary record) versus TD (for detail).  It appears Turbo Tax ingores this issue.
