I seem to have "almost" got the node_import" module working, simply by reducing the number of data entries to import from 5,500 to 500 at a time.
However, the CCK fields I created are not being listed in the field import options - only the standard CCK fields etc.
Is there somewhere I need to effectively "switch" these on?
node_import: http://drupal.org/project/node_import

Thanks for the tip - however that is way beyond my scope.
Are there any other ways to import data?

You can write a php script import using calls to Drupal API like show here http://acquia.com/blog/migrating-drupal-way-part-i-creating-node

I'm in the process of building a Drupal 6 site and I need to import around 5,500 records from a Filemaker database into CCK. I've exported a CVS file and I've tried the "node_import" module but I'm having no luck whatsoever as it's still a work in progress.
I keep getting a dropped server connection or a blank screen when moving from step 3 to 4.
Can anybody suggest any alternatives or a fix?
I'm aware that users have used a previous version of Drupal to do the import and then upgraded, but I'm already fully installed on D6.
Thanks,
Marc
