Creating team and user accounts in batch mode

Hi,

I would like to create teams and user accounts in batch (e.g. from a spreadsheet). I'm using DOMjudge 4.0.5 and I see that there is an "Import / export" option, but I can't find much documentation on this.

I have also somewhat successfully crafted my own SQL statements to insert tuples into the tables directly, but the problem is that I have to ask for the current id for the auto_increment fields of various tables and match them up. It's not a big deal, but if there is an easier option then I would like to know about it.

Thanks.

Howard
