I am really sorry for asking this. I feel like this is a stupid question, but honestly I have googled until the term googling has lost all meaning.
I just want to do a bulk update of product information, I do not want to add or import new products, just update the information for existing products. But all I seem to be able to find on google is articles referring to importing products into Magento. Perhaps my google-fu is failing me, and if this is the case I apologize, but I would be grateful if someone can just answer this really simple question.
I have a CSV file with updated product information.
I want to use this file to update the existing products in Magento 1.9.x.
Can this be done with importing?
Or will I have to build a script that reads the CSV file and manually updates each product?

Here's the steps I follow when running updates through Dataflow:
System -> Import/Export -> Dataflow - Profiles -> 'Export All Products' -> Run Profile -> Run Profile in Popup
These are the steps i have followed many times so i'm confident they will work for you.
Let me know if you would like me to make the steps above more in-depth.
