That's a good question. I'd like to export as little as possible, but I'll probably be making constant changers to my database. That means I'll have have to modify my spreadsheet (my master record), then save it as a csv file, then import it into my database. But once I get organized, I imagine my database could and should become my master record, and I can always reverse the procedure and save it as a spreadsheet file. Also, I want to learn how to import directly from a spreadsheet into a database. I finally broke down and purchased Navicat, which can apparently export from Excel to MySQL. However, I don't have Excel; I have Microsoft Works. And I hate to buy Excel when I'm planning on getting StarOffice - but will StarOffice work with Navicat and MySQL?
