Ive got a beta in the works that uses the magento dataflow process to import a CSV file with all attribute information.. it will do all types (text/select/etc) and all related values. If anyones interested in beta testing this for a limited time until it goes stable feel free to pm me or email me at scottbolasevich@gmail.com

Does anyone have any experience of running blakes 3 functions with version 1.4.1.0 at all?

I’m experiencing the following error when I try:

Fatal errorUncaught exception 'Zend_Db_Statement_Exception' with message 'SQLSTATE[23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1452 Cannot add or update a child row: a foreign key constraint fails (`magento/eav_attribute`, CONSTRAINT `FK_eav_attribute` FOREIGN KEY (`entity_type_id`) REFERENCES `eav_entity_type` (`entity_type_id`) ON DELETE CASCADE ON UPDATE CASCADE)' in /var/www/vhosts/magento.com/httpdocs/lib/Zend/Db/Statement/Pdo.php:234 Stack trace#0 /var/www/vhosts/magento.com/httpdocs/lib/Zend/Db/Statement.php(300): Zend_Db_Statement_Pdo->_execute(Array) #1 /var/www/vhosts/magento.com/httpdocs/lib/Zend/Db/Adapter/Abstract.php(468): Zend_Db_Statement->execute(Array) #2 /var/www/vhosts/magento.com/httpdocs/lib/Zend/Db/Adapter/Pdo/Abstract.php(238): Zend_Db_Adapter_Abstract->query('INSERT INTO `ea...', Array) #3 /var/www/vhosts/magento.com/httpdocs/lib/Varien/Db/Adapter/Pdo/Mysql.php(333): Zend_Db_Adapter_Pdo_Abstract->query('INSERT INTO `ea...', Array) #4 /var/www/vhosts/magent in /var/www/vhosts/magento.com/httpdocs/lib/Zend/Db/Statement/Pdo.php on line 234

In order to add attribute options like manufacturers, here is an wiki article:
