I have one board that I would like to migrate from phpBB software to vbulletin. Is this risky? Complicated? Thanks in advance.

No, not at all. To convert to vb is very easy. You can convert to vb by using Impex, the vb converter system. For more on the subject, have a look at these links: Hope it helps.

running impex is pretty straightforward once you get the config file setup correctly
