You do have to be careful, because it is connected directly to your server and database. It makes it difficult to play with. I haven't tried any imports yet because I am afraid if it is not formatted correctly, our database can really get screwed up. The documentation warns of database "destruction". I know, back-up first, but I think the only way I will be confortable trying an import is if I close the store while I do it. This time of year, I hate to close the store, even for a short time.

It's better to use PHP MySQL Bridge Connection than Direct Connection in Store Manager for X-Cart. It gives you ability to work with your data locally. And after reaching good results you can synchronize information. Read the article about this here
