[Freebase-discuss] Editing a collection table of data integers... or whatever

[Asier]

Hi,

I've been massaging some data with Gridworks, and now I would like to upload
it to Freebase. I'm working on the oil production figures, I have these
columns: Country, BBL & Year. The Country column is reconciled.

How must I create the "Schema Alignment Skeleton"?? I don't know, but it
seems that the autocomplete on the property arrow isn't working at all.
Any ideas?

Asier.
