Is there a tutorial or something around that can detail how to convert data from another forum database (vBulletin, phpBB, etc...) to webwiz (and to that system from webwiz)?

Any help is appreciated.  Thanks.

Different databases would use very different scehmas so they would not store data in the same way, which makes moving data from one database schema to a different database schema very difficult.

However, Web Wiz Forums does have a built in member import tool which can often be used to transfer across members from another database as this is often kept in one table, which makes it easier.
