    Has anyone ever used one of those little scanners that record the details off business cards? We're looking at acquiring one for work and would like to know if the data can be imported into our existing database, SugarCube, which reads .csv files.

    Most of them seem to come with some sort of database for the scanned data and mention a feature to export the data.

    Since .csv is probably the closest thing to a universal import/export 'standard' I'd imagine you will be fine with any of the scanners that mention data export. I can't think offhand of any spreadsheet or database or email client that can't handle comma seperated value format for output and input.
