Yes they process the data and you should get a "data quality" report, at which point it should tell you how many of your products listed successfully.

You should create an xml file of products and tell Google where it is through your google webmaster tools, other search engines also look for a sitemap xml file

For example

OK I have finally got it to work ,although I had to cheat again :0 ,the confirm side must be working as what I did was take the file from my ftp and uploaded manually via the dashboard and it passed ,so I can only assume there is something wrong with the uploading side of things
LOL my wife jumped about 3 feet as when it passed I let out a almighty yehaaaaa lol

I was always under the impression that the feed should be upload manually first time anyway.
