Sure, as of Gears 0.5.x.x, you can use the captureBlob trick to create
fake URLs, then download them from the LocalServer and parse them
yourself...

Thanks for your help! But is there any way to do this without
uploading the file to the domain server. The reason is we're working
in countries where bandwidth is a major issue and these csv files are
rather large.
Thanks again!!

Hi Sanjaya,
You probably want to make the csv file available to the domain
server then
you can use XHR to retrieve it to parse. As you are parsing each
row, you
can create an database entry for it. There is code sample
illustrating how
to perform database operations with Gears in the FAQ -

Hope that helps,
Austin

Hi,
I'm a complete newbie with google gears, but I couldn't find any
samples on how to do this task.
I have a few csv files that I want to import into seperate tables
in
the local google gears database. What's the best way to go about
doing
this?
Thanks in advance!
