Stock CSV file format?

Is there somewhere an example CSV file that shows the format of a file that can be imported in the stock management dialog?

I have tried to create some files, but nothing I have tried has worked so far...

Hi Ola,

you can easily create a sample CSV by simply exporting your stock to CSV.

Hope this helps,

Stock Import/Export CSV file format

Some more background on the Stock import/export CSV file format:

The content of the stock can be imported from and exported to a CSV file.

The CSV import and export uses a plain text file format with three fields:
  • Product Number
  • Library
  • Count
The fields are separated by the TAB character.

The Product Number and Library fields must match the name of a RailModeller library and product number in the library.
If no matching element can be found when importing a CSV file the entry will be ignored.

CSV formatted files can be read and edited with most spreadsheet applications (such as Numbers, OpenOffice, or Excel) or plain text editors.
They’re however not suited for editing with word processing applications (like Text Edit or Pages).
