update existing records in a table using an excel csv import file.

I want to update existing records in a table using an excel csv import file.

the table name is aflossingen and has the columns: AflossingID, VoorschotID, Aflossingdatum, Aflossingsbedrag, Afgelost, Saldo.

This is the code PHPRad has generated, which can only do an INSERT:
Code: [Select]
function import_data(){
if(!empty($_FILES['file'])){
$finfo = pathinfo($_FILES['file']['name']);
$ext = strtolower($finfo['extension']);
if(!in_array($ext , array('csv'))){
$this->set_flash_msg("Document formaat niet ondersteund", "danger");
}
else{
$file_path = $_FILES['file']['tmp_name'];
if(!empty($file_path)){
$request = $this->request;
$db = $this->GetModel();
$tablename = $this->tablename;
$options = array('table' => $tablename, 'fields' => '', 'delimiter' => ',', 'quote' => '"');
$data = $db->loadCsvData( $file_path , $options , false );
if($db->getLastError()){
$this->set_flash_msg($db->getLastError(), "danger");
}
else{
$this->set_flash_msg("Data imported successfully", "success");
}
}
else{
$this->set_flash_msg("Error uploading file", "danger");
}
}
}
else{
$this->set_flash_msg("No file selected for upload", "warning");
}
$this->redirect("aflossingen");
}
