Hello Rene,
The feed at http://inkt.wij5.nl/feeds/proberen.csv is "Text - Header Row - Semi-Colon Separated". This format is not automatically detected. So, when you register the feed, you must select this format type from the drop down box. You should then be able to see the fields on the next registration page correctly.
However, I have looked at the feed, and I notice that it does not contain any URLs. A URL is one of the required fields for Price Tapestry, as it needs to be able to generate a link to the product so that the person visiting your site is able to buy it.
There is an ID field in the feed, and you might be able to make a link to the site by registering this field as the Buy URL, and then using the "Text Before" filter to make the link by adding the URL infront, for example:
Filter Field: Buy URL
Filter Type: Text Before
Text Before:
http://www.example.com/buy.asp?productID=...and that would make the links. Also please note that Price Tapestry does not support spreadsheet (.xls) files. As it seems that you are not working with normal affiliate product feeds, if you find that the script is not suitable for your website I will of course refund your money.
Hope this helps,
Cheers,
David.
