I have created a simple zclass product for a web based newsletter. Each day's newsletter is input into a form and added into the ZODB as instances of this newsletter zclass. My question is... how do I import 2 years worth of newsletters from tab delimited files exported from another database? I searched the archives and how-to section and could not find the answer. Is this possible to do? Thanks!! Jamey
Im trying to finish a Product that does a very simplified version of what you want, just sucks all txt html stuff from a file. This can be most easily accomplished using Python reading straight off the file system or xml-rpc or some other system. If you are comfortable with Python its not too bad.... -- Andy McKay, Developer.

Hi Jamey, It's also possible (and i think maybe easiest...) to do this in an external method. Alas.. this also requires you to be familiar with Python (as was posted before...) -steve
