Given an Excel file like so:
A B C
lt_oem_code lt_oem_name description
VW Volkswagen A description & more
GM General Motors Another description
You could write the following formula in cell D2 and then copy it down.
="<Item type='LT_OEM' where=""lt_oem_code='" & SUBSTITUTE(A2,"&","&") & "'"" action='merge'>
<lt_oem_code>" & SUBSTITUTE(A2,"&","&") & "</lt_oem_code>
<lt_oem_name>" & SUBSTITUTE(B2,"&","&") & "</lt_oem_name>
<description>" & SUBSTITUTE(C2,"&","&") & "</description>
</Item>"
Then, within Innovator Admin paste all of the
<Item> queries into the window and wrap them in an
<AML> tag such as
<AML>
<Item type='LT_OEM' ...
<Item type='LT_OEM' ...
<Item type='LT_OEM' ...
<Item type='LT_OEM' ...
</AML>
Then, use the menu next to the
Run button to select
Run Batch… to execute the AML in reasonably-sized batches to optimize performance.
Hopefully that helps. If not, let me know.
