Hello Everyone,

I know this is a long shot, but I'm going to ask anyway!

Is it possible to upgrade from WWF V6.32 to the latest 9.X build?

DB is SQL Server.

We're about to purchase a license for 9.X, having been running 6.32 for a long, long time!

The problem is, I have ~1200 Members, ~6500 Posts in ~1400 Topics, which I *really* can't lose.

I'm happy to get down and dirty with SQL if need be, but I'm hoping someone else has done this previously.  I don't mind an interim step of 6 -->7-->9 if need be - - I just need some guidance.

Thanks in advance,

Rob

I recently upgraded from v 7.x and had 912K posts. Ugh... it was a chore and I did have to get down and dirty with the SQL. I'm sure you could do it... just will be tricky and take some work/

sparkweb, thanks for the reply.

Care to share any tips / "gotcha's" - things to look out for?

Best regards,

Rob
