Import scenario don't overwrite user defined fields once populated

I have a flat excel file data provider which I am using to create GL journal transactions.

Each of the various GL journals that exist with in the file have a batch number and related line numbers value 1 to x. Line numbers reset to 1 when the next batch number is hit from the data provider file.

On each of the respective line 1 entries are attributes that I want to store in User Defined Fields that I have added to the Journal Transactions screen. The attribute fields are empty when line number <> 1.

Currently I have been unable to prevent overwriting (effectively clearing out) the user defined field values that are populated from line 1 with the blanks that exist in lines 2 to x.

I have tried various instances formulae with IsNull, IIf and target restrictions of IsEmpty but have not yet been able to figure this out.

Any ideas please?

Thanks in advance.
