Contact phpBB and ask them, but I don't think that there is anything available to do this.

I looked in the forum documentation>version history and it says that tables are only added.

You could download your active database that your current forum is using and then open the empty database that comes with the latest version of the forum and import all of the files from the old database. 

Yes, you will have some empty fields, but at least all of the data will be there.  This is most likely your only option.

I'm not sure I understand what you are asking accerbs, are you trying to add data from inside the database or through a form?

It kind of sounds like you are inside the Access db, so I am guessing that the error being reported is that the value for the field can not be null or something like that.

In this case, you must just completely fill out the field for that entry or else delete the whole field by right clicking the gray box on the far left and clicking delete.

Otherwise I have no idea what you are asking if that isn't it.

Thanks,kasl_33
        haha, sorry, English is not my mother language.
        I'm trying to add data through an other fourm data base(ACCESS), like the first one's question, to move user, topics and posts from an other BBS to WWF.
