You can use import tool. it is in System -> Data -> Import /export

You can try to export first to get familiar with the format.

Yes. Each product is a single line.

About images. You can use import for images too. Images go to resource library first It can be still done in one step process.

Hi. try to use OpenOffice Calc software for open CSV files. It is free and also better works with CSV files. Once file opened OpenOffice Calc ask you to choose correct csv delimeter with preview window.

What is a meaning of big mess? Too many columns. This is correct.
You can reduce data if you reduce number of related tables in your import/export.

I think we need to take this question off the forum, since it is not particularly clear to anyone what issue you experience.

Please PM for personal support.
