Dear Sir/Madam,

I received a FUMA error 001 (Input file format was not correct / P-value column was not found)
on (job ID: 201471, job name: total3). My p-values are labeled p-value. Please find the header and first few lines of my input data as follows:

#CHROM POS ID REF ALT A1 FIRTH? TEST OBS_CT OR LOG(OR)_SE L95 U95 Z_STAT p-value

Dear Saeid,

Quickly looking at the example you have given, I would expect that removing the # will resolve the issue. Lines starting with # are seen as a comment line and will be ignored.
Please also make sure that there are no whitespaces before or after p-value which shouldn't be there.
If this does not resolve the issue, please let me know and I'll happily assist you in resolving the issue.
