Hi all,

I've recently started playing around with web2py and i have encountered a 
problem with the csv importing function.
I have a table defined called 'production' and i have already implemetned a 
smartgrid that will allow me to view,edit each row in the table.
However, I want to implement a function for the users much like the one in 
appadmin where I can upload a csv file and have its data appended to the 
existing table. If someone can tell me how to do it or show me a direction 
as to where to start it'd be much appreciated. 

EDIT:
I found a block of code while browsing the forums:

def import_table():
    form = SQLFORM.factory(Field('table',requires=IS_IN_SET(db.tables)),
                                          
 Field('csvfile','upload',uploadfield=False))
    form.process()
    if form.accepted: 
          try:
              db[form.vars.table].import_from_csv_file(request.vars.csvfile)
          except: form.errors.csvfile = 'invalid file'
    return dict(form=form)

but I get an error saying invalid file when I try to upload.
