Ben,
One thing to check for is the '&' character in your descriptions. This will
choke the upload for some reason (does someone who knows XML know why?).
I think the mass upload is only of value if you're adding more than 30-40
parts. I have a spreadsheet that addes the XML tags and converts colors to
their numeric values. I just have to figure out the category they fall in.
If someone were to write a converter for CSV set inventories to XML that
would be nice.
