How do i/ Is there a way to. take the on yomi and kun yomi reading and automatically input them into my rtk 1 anki deck? I wud like to glance at them each time i do a kanji. Also how can i suspend all the kanji after the end of rtk 1 (2042) in my deck...as i dnt rlly intend to do rtk3 ? do i have to go thru them one by one or is there an auto way... if u havent realised im lazy i like automatic. LOL so any help guys? lastly how do u guys go thru cards? BY that i mean whatsu r mental process do u pass a card if u get it perfectly correct or if u are close or if u have failed it 4 times today and just wana try tomoro.
edit: or actually not all the readings preferably the most common word the kanji comes in along with its reading..

Yeah, Excel is really handy for sorting those fields. If one deck has Heisig numbers and the other deck doesn't, sort by kanji first, copy over the stuff you want to copy, then re-sort by the Heisig numbers.
Just remember to re-encode the resulting file as a UTF-8 (Unicode 8 bit) tab-delimited text file before trying to import into Anki. You may need to open it up in text editor like EditPadPro (which I like a lot, but it's not free) to convert it back to UTF-8, then save it.
Create a blank deck with the fields you want, and just import the sheet that way. Import tries to match up the fields in the spreadsheet to your deck, so you either need enough fields in the deck, or you need to consolidate/remove the excess fields in the spreadsheet. EditPadPro has RegEx search and replace, so you can copy 2 columns of data out of a spreadsheet, do a RegEx search for \t (tab) and replace it with <br></br> or a space or two, or whatever. Then just copy/paste the resulting mess into one column of your spreadsheet.
If you want to automate this stuff, the more you know about stuff like RegEx, programming, etc., the better off you are. There are a ton of ways to automate all of this.
