	I have 15,000 users that needed to be added to the users sql server version. Having the regular welcome email sent to them is fine. I also need to have their signup date dynamically read via asp from each record read into the batch import script. I am willing to pay someone to do this page. Please help.

	Are you upgrading from an older version of WWF? Do you have all the users in a single table already with all the fields you want in the Authors table? I mean, they've already been assigned a unique username? Do they already know their username?

	No I am directly importing from an opt-in mailing list. I only have their email. I just want to add them to the WWF and have the function_send_mail.asp send them each an email to welcome them to the website. I would need it to either import from an excel or text file.

	So do you want and expect these 15,000 users to utilize the forum, or are you just taking advantage of the forum's built-in mailing capability? If it is the latter, I think -boRg- would recommend the Web Wiz Guide Mailing List as a more robust mass mailing solution.

	Hopefully they will take advantage once signed up. However, it would be perfect for them to share the same database as the WWG Mailing list. So that they dont have to re-signup to the website.... More like a single-sign-on website. I use a WWF sql server backend. Can the WWML use the same db tables in the WWF? This is so that they can use the same db username table. There by eliminating the need to re-signup
