I do not use the limited version so my ideas are untested against a ten 
line limit. A couple of ways you can limit your script lines and 
accomplish the task are:

You know where the data is so no dialog is required (just a warning if 
the get fails, if it fits)
Read in the data with "get url" rather than open, read and close.
Code the six field IDs as a literal item string ("1001,1007..."etc) and 
then use a repeat loop to put the data lines into the corresponding 
fields.

See how that goes.
