Importing Data - Maverick - Apr 22nd, 2009 I have just changed servers and I have found your great software. I have got everything running just the way I want. I have downloaded the last database I had into excel about 200 entries is there an easy way to import the data from this into my new form database. I have looked all over the forum but I can't see any answers relating to this. Or is it just a stupid question? RE: Importing Data - Ben - Apr 22nd, 2009 Hey Maverick, No - not a stupid question at all. I've encountered this scenario myself several times. I've sketched out an "Import Manager" module that will do exactly this: import data from different formats, but it's still far from being complete. I'm afraid that your best bet would be to export it as a CSV and write a script to convert the rows into SQL queries. A drag? Yup. It's possible there's some other scripts out there that may do this too. Sorry I couldn't be more help! - Ben RE: Importing Data - Maverick - Apr 23rd, 2009 (Apr 22nd, 2009, 11:32 AM)Ben Wrote: Hey Maverick, Thanks for your reply, with no-one bringing up the subject before, I thought it wouldn't be that easy. Please continue with the good work, as I said before, great product! RE: Importing Data - mpmonty - Jul 26th, 2010 Hi Ben any updates on this? I was able to import into my database with phpmyadmin and I can view them in the table there but cannot get them to show up in any views on my formtools? |
