According to this, not easy task for me, I can say- there always some problem occurs with csv products file. I have found this tool that claim to be able to do it .
Have no idea how well it works and there may be more out there.

Hmm is anyone else encountering problems with the images on this blog loading?
I’m trying to find out if its a problem on my end or if it’s the blog.
Any feed-back would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for referencing my article about the ImportExport file format. There is an English version of the article at http://www.avs-webentwicklung.de/fileadmin/documents/20120512_Produktimport_ImportExport_eng.pdf.

Then, if you don’t want to import from file, there is my array adapter for ImportExport which accepts arbitrary data sources as long as they can be transformed to an array. You can find it at https://github.com/avstudnitz/AvS_FastSimpleImport on github. See the readme for some simple examples. There are some improvements to ImportExport included, like automatic retrieval of images by http, partial indexing of the imported/deleted products only and some more.

I like your changes in the file format, possibly I’ll integrate that into my Array Adapter too. Your format should make some tasks easier. Thanks for your work!
