Trying to manipulate the store yourself is a bad idea. Instead, since this application is probably written entirely in Cocoa, I'd make use of GUI scripting to batch handle the insertion of data.

Hi,

Please accept my apologies if I am posting to the wrong list,

I use an application that I believe is written using CoreData. It is currently quite tedious to enter data into this application, and the data I need entering is already in a mysql database anyway. I'd like to be able to insert this data directly into the SQLite database the application uses.

I've looked at the database structure, and it looks fairly easy to add the data, and I can do it via PHP, my problem is that each table has a ZGUID column. This doesn't hold any user entered data, it looks like it is either generated by CoreData, or the cocoa application.

Can anyone shed any light on the function of the GUID column in a coredata sqlite file? If I can correctly insert this column I can insert all of the other data.

Many Thanks

Amy
