Need help regarding easy Easy Populate 2.1

Hello every OScommerce 2.2 people.

I have successfully installed the contribution Easy Populate 2.1

Now I am wondering when I go into my admin consol and click on Catalog and then I click on Easy Populate.

Then I clicked on "Download a tab-delimited .txt file to edit" and I was able to download the textfile.

It was named: EP1039633627.txt

I opened it and notepad started and I could see all product there and then I marked everthing there and pressed Ctrl+C to copy and then I started an empty ms excel dokument and pressed Ctrl+V to paste it there and it worked good. All the columns looks good.

I have 79 products for the moment and then I added 3 testproducts to the exceldokument to see if easypopulate works.

The problem comes to when I shall save the dokument.

Shall I save it as a text dokument or a csv file?

And can I name it to what ever I like? Or shall it have the same name as the text file I downloaded (EP1039633627.txt)?

I tried once as a text dokument and next time I saved it as a csv file.

(Neither a name.txt or a name.csv can I get working in importing this to my database. I have changed CHMOD to 777 for the temp folder).

Then I browse the file and found it and then I click on the button "Upload and insert do db"

After that I have no clue what to do. I thought that I could in admin go to Categorys/products and find my new added 3 products there but I can not find them. And I also looked at my website but I can not see any new products.

PLEASE ANYBODY TELL ME HOW THIS WORKS. ALL ANSWERS ARE VERY WELCOME.

THANKS IN ADVANCE
