[development] How do you create content for story by updating the database directly (what tables need to be updated?) instead of using the Drupal web application?

[Mohamed Jadelrab]

Hi John,

I think you want to create a script to populate the database directly, I
will advise you to use drupal_execute() :
http://api.drupal.org/api/function/drupal_execute/6 as it will maintain the
insertion of other fields as well like the author, created, and it will keep
you in the same context of adding the content one by one ..

if you still want to populate the database you need to check :
http://drupal.org/node/82661 CCK Overview , even it still needs to be
updated.

Regards,
