Does anyone have a sample Excel file so I know how it should be set up? Im not quite sure about Excel sheets for this purpose or CSVs.. I do know how to use Excel (didnt mean to make it sound like I dont), just want to make sure the categories and everything shows up correctly... thanks!

take a look at this file included in the download:
temp/Full-EP2005Aug31-0404.txt

Open using excel...then save changes as a tab delimited .txt

Thanks a bunch, now also.. Am I correct to assume the the way the Category Columns work would be like for instance: I sell t shirts.. I have a main category that says Pet T Shirts.. Then as a subcategory i have Cats and another one that says Dogs.. So the way Im thinking it works is that Category 1 would be Pets.. Category 2 would be either cats or dogs.. Then if I had subcategories for Cats or Dogs they would be in the Category 3 box, right?

Also Whats the status column for?

And for description I use HTML so i should be able to put that in the sheets description, correct? Sorry to bombard you with questions..
