Hi All
I am currently using megaBB with an Access backend and wish to move over to WebWiz with mySQL.
 
Does anyone have any suggestions on any way that I could do this. The current megaBB has:
2235 posts in 427 threads across 25 forums.
There are 160 registered users
 
Regards
Ian

MegaBB uses a completely different database schema so this would not be an easy thing to do, especially also going over to mySQL.

It would be simpler to start again from scratch.

I am hoping to write an Admin Tool as soon as I have time to import members from another database, which would at least solve one of the problems. However a generic tool for copying across posts, etc. would be almost impossible to write.
