I try to change a price of a product with Characteristics via .csv or mass action (see attached csv file)

product_id | product_name | price_value | mhbot1
4229 | Name1 | 2222 | Value1

Via: import - Error -

The product mhTop_2643 is of the type main but it already exists in the database and is of the type variant. In order to avoid any problem the product insertion process has been skipped. Please correct its type before trying to reimport it.

Via - mass Action - Error -

Notice
The line '' could not be imported Product not found.


I have change:
1. the product type - I have change to main but is not what I need. I need it to be a variant (or what other type a product with Characteristics can be?)

2. Changing the product code. (did not work)
3. Correct your CSV by using another product code. (did not work)

Please assist on how can I change a price value of a product with Characteristics via .csv or mass action

I have export a product with Characteristics via cvs with product code. (Attached is an screen shoot image with the way i am exporting the product via mass action.)

Here is the text result (attached a csv too)
"product_id";"product_name";"product_description";"product_code";"catlog_number";"price_id";"price_value"
4229;"Name1";"";"mhTop_2643";"";16590;40.00000

I still can not change the price within a product with Characteristics

Please advise

Thanks
