How to import data from CSV/Excel file into Gravity Forms?

    I have data sitting in a CSV/Excel file from my previous form service provider. I want to continue using the same form layout, but switch to GF and have all the records in one place.

    I know that GF does not have a built in importer to import data from CSV files, but I'm assuming it's possible somehow. The data is simply stored in a database somewhere, right?

    Can you give me any clues or guidance on how to import the CSV file into the Gravity Forms database?

    Anybody? No hints? I poked around in phpMyAdmin but didn't see any tables that jumped out at me as being Gravity Form related. Where is the database being stored? Thanks!

  3. The tables are names as such: YOURDBPREFIX_rg_*

    For example: wp_rg_lead, wp_rg_lead_detail, wp_rg_lead_notes, etc.

    here's a couple of previous threads on the same topic.
