I'm working with an audience list that was imported from csv.

The original file had three columns named '1', '2' and '3', which is
causing trouble for me since these translate to invalid xml tag names.

Is there a way to remove custom fields from an audience list?

Hi Jon,

We have a script that we are able to run which will remove particular custom columns based on a regular expression. I've run this for you. In future we plan on adding a tool to remove custom columns easily from the interface.

Ciao,
Marc

Hi Marc, 

We are having the exact same problem. I think converting field names to xml attributes causing this. 
Can you please help here as well? 
I can provide you details of my account. 

Thanks, 

Ergin

Hi Marc, 

We are having the exact same problem. Our client had added couple fields that uses numbers only which we know it doesn't comply with XML specs. 
Can you please remove those columns for me? 
Please do not hesitate to contact me. 

Thanks, 

Ergin
