kwalker Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 I've opened up my split files in Excel and they are the way I added to them. Here is the problem I've noticed: In the database, I have category named: Beautiful Collection Custom Ornamental Steel Doors In the store and admin, it's listed: Beautiful Collection Custom Orna. I have more categories truncated like that.., approximately 100 or so, and my questions are: 1. Should I reduce the characters length? I was reading max 30 somewhere. I'm not sure. 2. Do I have to have a description? I have item no#, price, quantity already. Let's use a door, model no#AVI550. It's in the category Beautiful Collection Is this right?.... The top category would be Doors = v_categories_name_1 The subcategory would be Beautiful Collection = v_categories_name_2 on the row for each door for that category? Right now I have about 36 Beautiful Collection Categories and each have a door in them, but it should be only one Beautiful Collection and 18 doors. I'm using the complete attribute download. Once I get past the importing all my data, I'll work on the options. Any help is appreciated Kevin Can someone move this post to Easy Populate & Products Attributes, Easypopulate support thread http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=7&t=162244 I was replying to a post there. Don't know how the post ended here!
