What to do if DIAdem scripted ASCII Import fails when using an old German configuration file ?

Primary Software: DIAdem
Primary Software Version: 9.1
Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A
Secondary Software: N/A

Problem: DIAdem can save configurations for its Ascii Import to allow re-using
the parameters for importing data from many similar input files.
Configurations are saved in *.stp files and contain keywords to
control the behavior of the ASCII Import.
Until DIAdem 8.1 some keywords were language-dependent:
English: 'Numeric','Date/Time','Textchannel','Ignore'
German: 'Numerisch','Datum/Zeit','Text','ignorieren'
After that only the English keywords were allowed, but the
German version of DIAdem 10.0 still accepts the legacy
keywords.
When using an English DIAdem 10.0 with a very old configuration
file originating from a German DIAdem without entering
the Ascii Import Wizard, then the import fails.

Solution: 1st option: Just edit the configuration, exchange the few keywords
2nd option: Switch on the wizard for import
3rd option: Do one manual import, at the end store the configuration
