PPCL 2.42: How to import text files into ads automatically?

Hi

I have a dealer who has all his ads daily updated within a text file. The structure is always the same. Around 1000 items are for sale within this text file. Not many information. Only items name, condition, price and a "deeplink" for the images.

I would like to import this text file daily or weekly so that those ads appers in classifieds one by one. Like it would have been uploaded manually item for item.

He told me he could send it to me also as a csv file or mdb file, if needed.

Is this possible at all and if yes how?

If it is not possible, what would be the best solution to make it easy to initially upload it and then update it on a regular basis within classifieds?

Thanks in advance
