title: How to load data into Core Data?
body: <p>thanks for you help. </p>
  
  <p>I'm attempting to add core data to my project and I'm stuck at where and how to add the actual data into the persistent store (I'm assuming this is the place for the raw data). </p>
  
  <p>I will have 1000 &lt; objects so I don't want to use a plist approach. From my searches, there seems to be xml and csv approaches.  Is there a way I can use SQL for input?</p>
  
  <p>The data will not be changed by the user and the data file will be typed in by hand, so I won't need to update these files during runtime, and at this point I am not limited in any type of file - the lightest on syntax is preferred. </p>
  
  <p>Thanks again for any help.</p>
