CSV stands for Comma

CSV stands for Comma Separated Values. But without knowing what each value is in each column, the question you're asking can't be answered in any detail.

 

Yes you can write a maxscript to import a .csv file. All you have to do is read in line by line and split at the comma's. From there you handle the data, but no one can tell you how without that extra information.

what do you mean read in

what do you mean read in line by line? How do you determine the file/tab it's reading and set something to read that cell. I'm pretty easy w/ having move to x move to y etc. but I'm totally clueless as to how to get the macro to recognize what x or y is. Could you give a quick example code or the commands we'd need?
