Refresh record matching step - HOW!!!!!!

Question

Import status is telling me to "Refresh record matching step", but my refresh record matching button (next to the save button) is greyed out!  I'm just trying to import the simplist of Excel files with straight mapping of 4 basic text fields to a newly created empty table in a repository.

...Still stuck on this one - it's driving me crazy - I decided to add more details here in initial post:
1) In console, I created a new repository.  Within that new repository, I created a new flat table called Company Code with four fields: BUKRS (text 4, unique/diplay), BUTXT (text 25, display), ORT01 (text 25, display), LAND1 (text 3)
2) The repository is loaded in the console
3) I exported test data from T001 table into an Excel file to be loaded.  Example of data:
BUKRS     BUTXT             ORT01             LAND1
0001     SAP A.G.     Walldorf     DE
1001     Company xxxxx     PARIS, TX     US
4) In Import manager, I selected the Excel file as the source, and the Company Code table as the target.  The source preview showed the Excel file contents correctly.
5) On the Partition Field/Value tab, it shows BUTXT, LAND1, ORT01 as Available fields, and Partition by: BUKRS.  I did not change this.
6) On the Map Fields/Values tab, I choose Automap.  A green zig-zag now appears next to the four source fields and the four target fields.  Each source field is mapped to it's correct target field.  In the Value Conversion and Mapping area, the Source values window shows all the values from the Excel file with a converted value and no destination value.  The status bar message shows "53 of 53 values converted".  The Destination values window shows a value of <NULL> for BUKRS, BUTXT, and ORT01, and nothing for LAND1.  The buttons in the middle are grayed out, and the Map checkbox is not checked.
7) This the point at which the "Import Status" is telling me to "Refresh Record Matching Step".  The Match Records tab shows the four "Mapped Destination Fields", no "Matching Fields", and the Add/Remove/Combine/Split buttons are grayed out no matter what I click on.  The entire "Record Matching" box below is blank.
...I read through much of the Help and did not find where I have gone wrong.
Points will of course be rewarded where appropriate.

Hi Brian,
Please make sure if you have done value conversion and map the key fild properly and take care of following steps
1)In match records Tab(next to map fields) just see if you have added a field to your right hand window pane.this combination would actually uniquely identify your records.Atleast select one field there.
2)In import status tab strip First check what message it is giving.If in right hand side window pane it shows that there are records it has matched and you are doing this for first time then choose 'CREATE' or if you want you can choose REPLACE but that only when you have created the records once.
Hope this helps
