Hi Carla,
So I do not have short term plans for advanced import; but on my list of tasks is a simple list import.

However you may have luck importing via HS2Edit and excel http://handheld.softpedia.com/get/Desktop-and-Shell/Windows/HS2Edit-19768.shtml
If you need a HS2Convert, I have one in my batch zip file; check out here:

(which is also the best current instruction on PDB->XML->AndShoBBer conversion)
Regards,
Anders

It's not terribly difficult I just don't see an option for it in AndShoBBer.
