My original goal was to teach myself Objective-C but with such little time to study it I found it to be a daunting task. At least with AppleScript Studio I can write useful little GUI Apps to do things that I would usually have to do manually.

I'll have a play with this script and give it a simple GUI and see if I can get this process underway. Maybe I can even script the application to open and import it. Who knows.

Paul,

Once you want to try your own data make sure to change the line

from 	: set create_the_data to true
to 		: set create_the_data to false

I think the most daunting task of learning objective C has to do with using the frameworks.

Were you able to get the script to work ?

It should work fine on your data, as long as it is tab delimited. It would be nicer if it had an interface.

A while back I removed everything that had accumulated over the years on my website, so there is not much on it, and I am in the process of rebuilding it from scratch again..

Take a look at the Xbase link below, it is very handy, particularly if you use BBEdit.

Also take a peek at the random name generator, which can be used for database testing.
