dumping values to node

hi!
i'm migrating to drupal and i face this problem..
i've got an old database with 3 columns(name, address, contact) and around 500 rows in it..i wanna transfer them into a node(500 separate nodes) with all the 3 fields(name, address, contact) into their custom CCK fields..i already made the custom fields, but i'm stuck on how to dump those values to drupal database..
I wanna dump those values so that i can manage the fields withviews..
is there any module that can do that?
i'm now trying to dump values using cURL(donno if it's the prescribed method :( )

The easiest way I've found to do this with by dumping the table into a csv and using the http://drupal.org/project/node_import module-- works great.
