It would be great to haev a way to IMPORT posts directly into VB or MySQL directly. I can GENERATE a TON of posts in excel etc into the right fields and so on, the problem is HOW to get them into VB? This would be a FABULOUS hack etc.

Even if it is a remote software package that someone is familiar with. I have found a few but the programs are MORE work than actually posting. I can Generate all the posts quickly with excel etc then export that to almost any format needed but the question is HOW do I import them so they show up right in VB, now I realize that doing it this way means I will have to shut DOWN the forum or at least ALL posting ability while this is being done and I have NP with that. Just need to figure out the fastest and easiest way to actually IMPORT the posts. Even if it means I have to import them ALL into ONE Forum then use the mass move feature is fine

Thank You
