Importing CSV Files From Excel
For those of you who have your collections stored in an Excel spreadsheet, this option gives you a way to import your spreadsheet into the Figure Vault. Once your columns are arranged the way mentioned below, you can save your spreadsheet as a "CSV (Comma delimited)(*.csv)" file in Excel and import it into the Figure Vault.

NOTE: Do not modify your original spreadsheet. Make a copy of it before changing anything in case you make a mistake!


The CSV Header Row
The first row of the CSV file is the header row. The only two required columns are the series and name. The rest of the columns must be named one of the following:

 PropertyDescription
seriesThe toy series or folder path the figure belongs to. You can seperate the path with a forward slash '/'. For example, Star Wars/Carded Figures.
nameThe name of the figure.
 yearThe year it was released.
 itemnoThe manufacturer's item number or UPC.
 paidAmount you paid.
 valueIt's value.
 heightIt's height.
 quantityHow many you have.
 locationWhere is it stored at (closet, attic, mommy's, storage).
 conditionThe condition of the item.
 descriptionA description of the item.
