import suggestion, not work for URL fields

import suggestion, not work for URL fields

re: Zoho Creator

1. A suggestion for Creator import. The current methods of copy and paste and mailing a doc are primitive. I wasted two hours getting it to work and import (mostly) correctly. I had to insert extra columns in my CSV files and run many tests to get the CSV file formatted in a way that imported all fields to my Creator form.

Other sites have a wizard process that I recommend. The user should be able to upload a CSV file. The server reads the file and displays a page where the columns are displayed. Underneath each column is a pick list where the user can then map the CSV file column to an actual form field. The user maps all the columns and clicks Go. The server then fully uploads the file accordingly.

2. I was not able to get one thing to work in my extensive import testing. I never was able to successfully import URL fields. Creator displayed a blank value for those fields instead of the actual URL. Is that a bug? If not, is there a certain format or other way to get them to import correctly?

Thank you,
