Project with Multiple Variables

Hello,

I’m creating a generator of designs in Adobe Illustrator with the goal of having a single .ai file containing dozens of designs. Each design includes text fields and images linked to variables. In the final version, each variable will be connected to dozens of different fields.

At the beginning of the project, I had two designs where some variables were linked to a single object, while others were linked to multiple objects. Everything worked fine, and there were no issues when importing a .csv file. Unfortunately, after expanding the project with several more designs, the following error started occurring.

When importing the same .csv file, I get the message: "The current file already contains variables. Do you want to overwrite the current variables and data sets?" I can either choose "Yes" or "No." If I select "No," nothing happens. If I select "Yes," another error message pops up: "The filter operation cannot be completed because an unknown error has occurred."

Has anyone encountered a similar issue? I’d be grateful for any advice. I’ve tried many solutions, but nothing has helped.

Thank you in advance for your help! ❤️
