Just use <a href="http://drupal.org/project/node_export">http://drupal.org/project/node_export</a><br>It's actually "node export / import" and of course it has stable releases in both D5 and D6.<br><br>Want a bulk export / import?<br>
<br>Just use the suggestion right on the project page:<br><br><h3>Bulk Export/Import</h3>
<p>Node Export now supports bulk node operations from the
admin/content/node page. For a more advanced approach to bulk
import/export of nodes use the <a href="http://drupal.org/project/views_bonus" rel="nofollow">Views Bonus</a> module to export a CSV of nodes in a <a href="http://drupal.org/project/views" rel="nofollow">View</a> and then import the CSV with <a href="http://drupal.org/project/node_import" rel="nofollow">Node Import</a>.</p>
Hope that helps, let us know how it goes,<br><br>Victor Kane<br><a href="http://awebfactory.com.ar">http://awebfactory.com.ar</a><br><a href="http://projectflowandtracker.com">http://projectflowandtracker.com</a><br><br>
