thanks man.  I upgraded from 7 beta 3 to the final 7, by taking your advice and just adding the fields that were missing.

Stars aren't working, but I'm still tweaking it!!!!

to goto ver7, I just used the old database, but added any fields that that new database had.  It seems to have worked, but forsome reason, the "stars" under a persons name (above their avatar) graphic doesn't work.  When I view the html, it just puts a ZERO ( 0 ) into there, not the graphics file.

Don't fill in any of those fields,  I screwed up the stars by padding with ZEROS.

make sure you are using beta4 and access 2000 version.

for uprading from beta3 i need the beta 3 mdb. I realize i don't have it anymore. for those who need beta3 to 7.01 or rc1 to 7.01 . You can email me the original mdb file and i will see what i can do.

hi liveset i believe the error is caused by a wrong datatype.

open the mdb file using access. open the table .

there is a triangle at the top left hand corner click that.

now the first column will display all the column titles and the 2nd column will display the data type

click the datatype and a menu (arrow down) will appear choose number

regards

I just used the ww7 Migrator tool and took a v6.34 Forum up to v7.01 without a hitch.

Of course, now I have to set all the forum permissions and groups that I want...but such is life with such a great forum app!

I don't think there is one for a SQL powered forum. You might try over at http://www.maddogs-asp.com - Mad-Dog's site. My forums are Access powered.
