Can the VB members database be shared with another script

He also says this: "Integrating your current player database is absolutely no concern whatsoever. THe games can be set to use your current user tables in your current database without any modifications."

I want to make sure this really is possible before I spend the money.

Any help or expertise is appreciated!

If this script specifically advertises integration with the vB database, I would believe him, as that isn't so hard.

If he just advertises "integration with any user database without modification", that seems a little hard to do.
Seeing as different people/scripts have different fieldnames, password algorithms, fieldtypes and so on...
