2000 Simple products in a configurable product

Question

I am trying to associate 2000 simple products with one configurable product.

The problem is Excel has a limitation on the length of a cell. I can not put all the SKUs of simple products in one cell.

I am using Magmi to import my products. Magento version is CE 1.7.0.2

Associating simples with using two seperate files is also not working since the second update overrides the first one!

Is there a way to handle that? Or do I need to change my logic? Instead of using that many simples should I do something else?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers

Answer 1

I solved my problem via removing the simples_skus field from the import file and using the automatic association logic which depends on the SKUs of configs and associated simples. This worked pretty well since our SKUs are already designed with that logic. Simples first Configs after.
