I have created custom gallery extension but I need to implement an import and export or gallery data in the CSV Format.

I did too much research but couldn't find any useful link to find solution so please let me know if anybody had idea for this.

more details are helpful. Do you use the catalog_product_gallery functionality or your own database? Do you just want the data? – Fabian Blechschmidt Mar 14 at 15:27

For a CSV exports you can generate a grid with your data and use the getCsv() function. Sounds overhead, but that's exactly what the export of the Tablerates shipping cost table in the backend does.

See: Mage_Adminhtml_System_ConfigController::exportTableratesAction and Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Shipping_Carrier_Tablerate_Grid.

For the import you could also have a look at this module (Mage_Shipping_Model_Resource_Carrier_Tablerate::uploadAndImport) or on the import module for product data (Mage_ImportExport), but this is much more complicated.
