Google Documents Import
6 July 2010
Google have introduced a new version of Google Documents which can cause an Import Error if your Google Account is using the new version.
You can continue to create documents in the older version, for now, by opting out of the new version.
Simply go to your Google Docs Settings page, click the Editing tab, and deselect the option labeled
"Create new text documents using the latest version of the document editor."
