Hi All
I am creating a website which has a number of different companies which share the same cck fields in the database. However I would like to know how I can import records from a csv file into the database since they are some shared tables / cells involved. Can this be done?
Please advise.
Regards
Adrian

Have a look at Node Import.

After quite some time, there is support to import Data from a CSV File and match it to CCK Fields.

hi bennos
Thank you for your prompt reply, I have installed the module, however it does not work for me after I configure the CSV file it shows me the content well laid out in step 3 of 8, but when I proceed to the stage where the content is supposed to be mapped, I get a blank screen (white screen) as though it is timing out.
I tried numerous options but nothing seems to work. I read there was an issue with the Content templates module and so I disabled it, but still then same challenge. Are they other alternatives that you are aware of?
If you care to see the data etc... Just let me know.

Hi,
