Import Article Data via CSV

I’m using Textpattern in conjunction with smd_calendar to produce a events calendar for a school. At the start of each term I have to enter hundreds of events onto the system. I was wondering if there was an easier way to do this.

Would it be possible to layout a CSV spreadsheet with the data and import it via phpMyAdmin into the correct TXP tables? I need to import the following data:

Title
Title URL
Body
Start Date
Start Time

Thanks.

That could work, I’ll try giving it a spin. I just wasn’t sure if there was an easy way to do it out of the box.

Thanks Bloke.
