Hi I maintain a huge user review database outside the VB forum. Now that I want everyone to participate VB, I want to migrate all user review data to the forum.

I have the following fields in my user review database:
- date (YYYYMMDD)
- subject
- name
- email
- content

I was wondering how to convert all these 3000 entries into the forum.

I guess 'subject' could be the thread title, 'content' will naturally be the content.

'name' would be guest names

any help would be greatly appreciated!

sorry but there is no easy way to do this or to provide help: You have to write a PHP script that will read data from your review database and write into your vb database unless you want to convert all manually.
