Hi Mans,

Starting with a spreadsheet - data in colums, no headers - put a blank 
column inbetween each, starting at the beginning and, in the top cell, add 
little snippets like this...

 {  "text": "

so that, as a whole, a single line of the spreadsheet reads as a valid json 
entry, with a comma at the end, and 'fill' down the sheet, so it looks like 
this...

Then copy and paste the columns into a friendly text editor (not a 
word-processor). When I do it I get some kind of 'tab' character that I 
need to globally remove (search and replace all). I've highlighted it in 
the top left of this screenshot.

Then I add opening and closing square brackets and save it as .json

Drag it into TW and it appears like a regular import.

NB: if there's anything wrong with your json, you get a big red warning but 
nothing breaks - but use a backup, obviously.

Regards,
Richard
