<p class="MsoNormal">If you have questions about importing your data (not XML), I know you can export out of PastPerfect into a CSV excel file. With version 2.8, you can import that directly into ASpace, after you have migrated the data to the import template.
Thanks to the work of Bobbi Fox and others, what used to be a plug-in for importing excel spreadsheets, is part of the core code with version 2.8.<o:p></o:p></p>
