HI to everyone,
i stumbled accross EP for the first time today to help me batch create multiple items.

The install has gone with no problems however after downloading the Download Complete tab-delimited .txt file to edit section

I edit my changes in excel and save it back as a tab deliminated text file.

after importing the file i get the following results:

File uploaded.

q1. Why does it report skipped! - model - no catagory for this product? Would this be the next line in excel that is empty?

q2. Although EP reports the above products are UPDATED! no products are enterd in to my product list within zen cart.

I notice if i give each product an individual v_products_model name EP updates and adds each of the above. howveer i do not want this, all of the products need to be named "Home Range"

When all product model names are the same EP does not change anything within ZC and no new products are added.

If there is any other information i can provide please ask.
Thanks for what appears to be a great add-on.

Zencart version 1.3.6
EP version 1.2.5.4
