Feeds Module - CSV Import of MultiFields pic[0]... pic[n] and Taxonomy[0]...Taxonomy[n]

Forgive me if this obvious as I am new and this is all greek to me. I have been trying to investigate this on Drupal.Org. I think given what I have read so far the answer is [you can not do that]. I hope I am wrong.

I am uploading nodes via a CSV file using Feeds. I have a Term Ref multi field linked to taxonomy terms of size 10 and a multi field Picture of size 10. Of course when I go to the mapping of feeds, there does not seem to be a way to map my CSV file onto a instance of my multifields so I just kept using the Picture field as my target in the map (eg. csv Picture0 -> node field Picture, csv Picture1 -> node field Picture, csv Picture2 -> node field Picture) assuming the module would say "place csv picture1 into first node field Picture instance eg. Picture[0] ... Oh we have another mapping to node field Picture so lets put the next value into another instance of the field eg. csv Picture2 -> node field Picture[2] etc.

Well of course my node field Picture[0] ends up being the value in my CSV Column Picture9 and in my node field Picture 1-9 are blank. So, I am overriding the Picture[0] value with each mapping.

I have not tried my Taxonomy Field yet, but I assume it will do the same thing.

So, before I finish with some questions... I am new to Drupal and have not learned PHP yet, so I am hoping for a module/click solution.... or a STEP BY STEP place this code in this file type solution.

Thanks in advance for your help!!

Q. So, am I right that I can not get there from here, or is there documentation showing how to do this that I missed. If I can not do this with Feeds... is there a work around?

Q. Can I pass an array of values for feeds to parse into the different Field Instances?

Q. Is there a better module?

Q. How are you guys/girls doing this. I am sure I am not the first.
