Attribute to 1500

Hi all!

I have a site that I need to enter attributes all the way from 1-1500. I have done up to 150 by hand and it is extremely tedious.

See what I mean here: http://www.inkjetoutput.com/site/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=9&products_id=47

The height needs to go to 1500. Is there any way I can batch input them? I was in phpMyAdmin and I see where the attribute tables are. I was thinking I could set things up in excel and then batch upload it somehow.....just not sure how.

Any help would be appreciated!

Re: Attribute to 1500

Unless you have an extreamly powerful server ... you will never get a Product with 1500 attributes to work ...

What kind of product is this?

Re: Attribute to 1500

If your customers can accurately type the values, you could use the comment on the Option Name to tell them what values are allowed and use TEXT attributes for Height and Width instead of the dropdowns ...

The pages would be extreamly fast and you would not run into a problem ...

Zen Cart v1.4 might be able to handle the dropdowns as that will be using a lot of newer methods to manage this but you would still have input values of 1500 lines which is a lot to download via a browser to the customer's computer ...
