The procedure for adding new records to existing table (the one that contains the data from previous import) is pretty much the same, except the step four where you should add the number of starting row to be imported.

For example, if you have already imported 10 records and want to update the local table with new records, instead of typing URL alone, you'll add variable dbbee_sr and set its value to 11 like this:
