CCK import export

Buenas Compañeros Drupaleros,

Tengo una pequeña consulta respecto a contenidos en Drupal, necesito agregar una gran cantidad de contenidos (de un tipo especifico) a Drupal, pero necesito hacer una importación de un archivo de Excell ya que son demasiados(mas de 1000) e insertarlos 1 por 1 tomaría demasiado tiempo.

En la experiencia de ustedes, alguno se ha topado con algún modulo que se encargue de hacer esta importación masiva de contenido?

Agradezco mucho de antemano la colaboración

Anybody have any good references on this? I've looked at http://www.civicactions.com/blog/cck_import_and_update and like Wim Leers approach in that post of using files for CCK type imports: seems clean and modular, only problem is it doesn't work for me ;-) ARGH ^&*

I've googled about a bit and found a bunch of refs to "Programatic CCK Install" but I think most of these refer to D5. I'm not getting errors on install and I can do the CCK import smoothly by copying and pasting into the textarea w/ admin/content/types/import, but the code below does NOT install the CCK type.

Hi Group,

After Saturday's meeting, I've been playing with the Import/Export API for Drupal 5 (5.x-1.1). It's working somewhat; I understand the basics on how to export, add a record to the CSV file, and import back in.

But when I export, I only get the main content type record, and not it's fields. I have a type called "dispatch" and 2 fields "street_name" and "street_no" My resulting CSV file does NOT have the fields (columns) for "street_name" nor "street_no".

I've just finished reading Robert Douglas's excellent article on CCK. And two things struck me when reading about the data structures of CCK:

• With data that is so highly normalized, how will this impact data access of CCK nodes? Drupal is already very demanding of mysql and I wonder if this will slow down data access even more. Feedback?
• More and more, Drupal is approaching a web based version of a 4GL, where datesets can be defined and maintained. This makes Drupal more than a CMS; it is now a data access system. But one BIG need remains: a way to get data in and out of those datasets. We desperately need a data import/export system for Drupal that can handle these complex table and field relationships. Has any work been done in this regard?
