Guest Posted November 24, 2002 Posted November 24, 2002 Guys, I have now spend 3 weeks with OSC 2.2 and it look really good, but with some important things missing. 1. A better Import utility (you have BIG problems importing 3700 partnumbers with 1 main category and 2 sub categoryes for each partnumber. It should be possible to import them via an intellingent import utility). I need to upload these once a week :( Kim :x

I need to upload these once a week :( Kim :x Before you leave and try using Interchange or some similar have a quick look at this mod. http://www.oscommerce.com/downloads.php/co...ions,716/type,3 It should do what you want.
Guest Posted November 24, 2002 Posted November 24, 2002 Agree, it would also be nice if you had a parameter telling numbers of sub categories. Can anyone do a little programming on this ? (I cant program PHP ) ? Kim

(I cant program PHP ) ? Kim Kim, don't leave just yet. I like the idea of being able to do N number of category levels. I have an idea of how I want to implement it, but I'm in between a rock and a hard place. I've got to stop working on EasyPopulate long enough to get a couple sites up. So if you can hang out for about another week or so, then I can probably have EasyPopulate do what you need. This simple export/import of product data is good, reasonable, useful functionality, and it's sprung into existance in just the last week or so. OSC is a good package, and the contribs are a major strength, because the package can go in whatever direction you need. Tim
Guest Posted November 25, 2002 Posted November 25, 2002 Hi Tim, Great news... I will stay tuned. Let me know if I can help. I can email you the file I want to import ? Kim
wasson65 Posted November 27, 2002 Posted November 27, 2002 Hi Tim,Great news... I will stay tuned. Let me know if I can help. I can email you the file I want to import ? Kim Just to leave a trail for someone finding this thread, EasyPopulate 2.1 is doing everything that Kim needs, I think.... Tim
Guest Posted November 27, 2002 Posted November 27, 2002 Tim, Maybe i am doing something wrong ? Ican split the file op manually and then i can import. If I try to use your split in version 2.1 it will look like this : File uploaded. Temporary filename: C:PHPuploadtempphp24F.tmp User filename: Book1.txt Size: 64597 Creating file EP_Split1.txt ... Added 0 records and closing file... You can download your split files in the Tools/Files under /catalog/temp/ There will only be one file which is semilar to the one i uploaded for splitting. I do not have any clue at all what is wrong ! any ideas ? Kim

Can you send me the file you're trying to use? [email protected] I'll see if I can find anything funny in it... Tim
wasson65 Posted December 3, 2002 Posted December 3, 2002 Hi Tim,are your email spelled correct ? Kim Sorry, no it was [email protected] Just in case someone finds this thread later.
ravitek Posted February 16, 2004 Posted February 16, 2004 Hello, I want to bring over my products.txt file and make it into a easy populate file, what fields are required as I suppose I could use excel to shift things around a bit.... I am thinking correctly or should I stick with interchange.
