Hello,
I am using STRUCTURE 2.3.4 software for population genetic analysis. But something goes wrong.
First, I converted VCF files into STRUCTURE file format with PGDspider ver 2.1.1.5.
Then, I tried importing the file into a new project(File -> New Project). In setting step, I specified Number of loci as "1377" because STRUCTURE says my data has "294 Lines with 1377 Columns/1 Line with 1375 Columns" ,clicking "Show data file format". For your infomation, number of my sample is 147.
When I finish setting and want to proceed, error "Bad Format in Data Source: Expect 1379 data entries at line 1" occurs, and clicking "OK", a window says "The data file is expected to have following format: 1 row with 1377 entries(marker name)/294 rows with 1379 entries(data)".
Though I turned back to the setting and modified Number of loci several times, almost the same error occurs, "294 rows with ** entries" increasing by 2 from 1377.
So could somebody tell me how to solve this problem?
Thank you all.

Thank you _r_am.
A postdoc in my lab solved this problem.
He said that my STRUCTURE file is consisted of 1 line with * columns( = number of loci ), and * line ( =number of sample x 2)with columns( *=+2, because 2 columns that contain sample ID and sample population are on the left side).
So, I specified Number of loci as "1375" and everything worked!
