Hi Alex,

I never used OSCommerce, then it's difficult to compares. You have to know that the Store module do not allow variants product. I will add this feature in a future version.

Concerning your upload from another database, it depend if it's a one shot or regular (update, synchro). For a one shot import, you can use the Import feature. Like many other DNN modules, Store use an XML file for import / export products and categories. If you have to update your products on a regular basis, you could write a stored procedure or use a database tool (Enterprise Manager, RedGate, ...)..

Currently, I do not have a roadmap. I have to finish some changes for XHTML compliancy, then after I will write a roadmap for future versions.

Hi Alex,

The Store module allow an unlimited number of categories and sub categories. A product is linked to only one category (another limit I have to change in a future version). Concerning the complete fields list, you can install the module on a DNN instance and look for tables names with the prefix 'Store_' like: Store_Categories, Store_Products, ...

Here the Store_Categories fields:

CategoryID int
PortalID int
CategoryName nvarchar 50
CategoryDescription nvarchar 500
Message ntext

and the Store_Products fields:
