Needing help with exporting items from zen to exel (csv format)

I have purchased a point of sale program and need to export all of my items currently in my zen cart store. Launch the POS System and then reload these itmes with quantity, sku, inventory etc. from excel back to zen cart from excel (scv format). I have a deadline on this so any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Sandy

Have you looked at the EZ Populate or Easy Populate mods in the downloads section?

I haven't looked there, but will, thanks! I'm still not sure that this system will work the way I want it to. It needs to keep track of inventory online as well as in my brick and mortar store.

EZ populate or Easy populate don't seem to be what I'm looking for

I don't know of any mod or free program that will do what I think you're trying to do.

There are a couple of commercial programs which interface with Quickbooks, but you'd probably have to have an interface designed and written for your POS system, if it isn't already available.

oh, I know you can export the contents of your cart to excel, I just don't know how to do it. I have heard it is tedious as you have to remove every portion of every data base. I just don't know how.

Easy Populate can easily help you with getting your products info to .csv, but the connection to your POS program, it would have to be manually.
