So i guess what i am hearing is that there is no special code i can use to send my form info to the WWF DB. I need to use the WWF Database for all of my user registration and verification.  Beyond that, I can use other DBs for my other info. Is this correct?

You don't need to if you are willing and able to do the mod yourself, but there is no special code or current mod to do it for you. Maybe I'll build the mod to do whem I finish with my board's mod, but that will be much much later say a couple months from now.

wot about the merge from V6.43 to V.7

you could copy the usernames and passwords into the V6.43 database and then merge it to V7

then your users can login and you can mod your site to work off the forum database

how many users do you have?

I don't think is an option for every one. The members for my site have 20 different levels of authorization for 7 different areas of the site and based upon their authorization level they can set authorization levels on other accounts. That's 20 different setting for 7 areas or 20*20*20*20*20*20*20 different combinations for authorization. Not soemthing that is needed to run WWF and not something that should be combined into its database. My member can then be associated with over 30 other tables in the database. Not counting the forum tables there are close to 60 tables in the database, so in some cases it's much easier to mod WWF to user your site's login etc than to mod your site to use WWF.
