Populating the Store

[mikey boy]

Hi,

 

I'm trying to fill my site with my inventory, but I've not had much sucess with Easy Populate. It never actually finishes, plus almost 30% of the entries are blank, with no description, price or image. I've come across the "Excel" contribution, but it doesn't have the instructions needed to integrate it into the site Admin area (????).

 

So does anyone know of any other way to take an Excel spreadsheet & import it into OsCommerce? I have Microsoft Access (which I know very little about), could I use that to create an SQL file? Are there any other methods? What are the options for stockign the store?

 

What do you use to import a large inventory? :D

 

Thanks.
