If you use the old YAAS before this one and want to keep your database tables you need to back them up and then restore them after the upgrade -
This was a stumbling block for me also and then I finally bit the bullet and did it -
I have access to my SQL databases via my hosting account with godaddy ...
I went into the admin tool and backed up my 3 databases ... saved them to my desktop and then upgraded the system and took out my template edits and installed the new 4.0 system and then restored my databases over writing the new ones.
My awards given out were still there and who I gave them to ..
I also asked a DBA I know for some help ..

Ok... it's those 2 steps that I'm stuck on - I have full access, I just don't generally mess around in phpmyadmin, so I need a little more intrusction on the backing up and restoring of the DB's.... I have given out 500+ awards over the past couple of years, and it would mean a shitload of work to add them back manually if I mess something up...
