I created a .puz file from your earlier posting but when opening it in Across Lite I receive a "corrupt file" error message.

I get the error too, but it still works. When you see the error message popup just click "OK" and then everything works as usual.

Yes, Across Lite is pretty picky about the format of the file being imported. It must be plain text and have exactly the right number of clue lines to match the grid. If you try to pull in an RTF or MS Word file for example, you'll get the corrupt file error. Also, make sure you don't have any blank lines at the end of the text file.
I just tried again to make sure the puzzle opens fine, but note that I'm using the Mac version of the program... the Windows or Linux version could be more picky.
