Default Altitude oddity - CN2 w/ .stx file format

I have a new CN2 and I've loaded a (what I believe) is a carefully formatted .stx file. Tab delimited.

Most of the waypoints show the correct positive field elevation. A few (seemingly random points) show a negative number. Specifically -3277.55916.

The altitude in the file is 320. The column header is Elevation[Feet].

Anyone else experienced this and if so, know what the cure is?

Thanks,

It's almost certainly a file format problem.

Take a look in a text editor that displays all non-printing characters. Notepad++ works.
