I am trying to import catalog from my dev Commerce Server to another server. Both have SP1 installed. I exported the catalog to an XML file from my dev server and I imported to the other. After importing, some variant properties were not imported. The properties are multilingual and when I check the XML, the valeus are there with the correct language attribute. for example

<ProductVariant Item_x0020_Number="D25" listprice="11.0000" lastmodified="2007-10-11T15:57:17" Out_x0020_Of_x0020_Stock="No" Variant_x0020_On_x0020_Sale="No" rank="2" id="Id_345">
<DisplayName Value="Deep Cleansing Oil" language="en-US" />
<Size Value="2.3 fl. oz." language="en-US" />
<Variant_x0020_Name Value="Deep Cleansing Oil (S)" language="en-US" />
<Variant_x0020_Swatch_x0020_Picture Value="D25_65x65.gif" language="en-US" />
</ProductVariant>
Does anyone have this problem

I don't recall seing this problem before...

Maybe double check that the Schema is indentical between the two systems (or make sure you click the "Import Schema Changes" checkbox on the Catalog Import Wizard). Guessing maybe some Variant properties are not defined on the second server. Just a guess...

I tried various combinations of options during the import process. In the end, I edited the xml (schema + data area) file so that I do not use spaces on the names. For example "VariantName" instead of "Variant Name". I allowed spaces for display names instead. For some reason it liked it better that way.
