Greetings all, and happy New Year!

I have been lurking here for a little while, and have found I am not alone in my problem: I would like to import an existing membership database for my organization (in text-delimited format) as a starting point for my forum. (Then I can e-mail all of my members on how to get started).

After trying a number of search strings, I found several posts where people asked about this, but they kind of disintegrated into thin air.

On another Web site I manage, we use Discus, where the administrator may or may not choose to use MySQL as a backend, but it has an import facility/utility that allows the admin to paste delimited text, which it parses into the database.

Any/all suggestions are most appreciated!
