andyide Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Hi guys, Have sussed Easy Populate and it rocks my world. Accursed Excel only allows 256 columns in my export file - how would I get around it? I have one attribute for my store that is 'Colour' and there are 130 entries for colours. I know, I didn't know that there were colours other than red, blue, green brown and black - but apparently there are. Also some of my clients items are mixture of colour like Black/Chartreuse. FYI, Charterues is a king of lime green. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chartreuse_(color) So how would I export ma data file and edit it in an easy fashion within Excel? Or should I just write a custom php script to doeit? Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack_mcs Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 There is an option in easy populate to set which attributes get loaded. You could try limiting them using that. It would be more work for you but might work. There is also a way to get around the limit that is explained on Microsofts support site. I don't know if it works but it is there. Other than that, there isn't anything you can do to get around it, at least not that I know of.
