Access to MySQL?

[cannonball]

And I was wondering... I run a rather big community site att www.karlxii.se, but it´s all ASP and ACCESS. Since I now have access to my own VPS running apache2, php5 and my SQL5, I wanted to ask: is there a way to import all the articles from the ACCESS db to VIVVO?

Buddy, you will need to use a database conversor app, like EMS database products and a profissional to make it the data conversion, not so easy, because its a completly different estructure

Converting articles from Access db to MySQL is absolutely no problem. There is no need for any converters, in worst case we can export Access db as .CSV, and import to MySQL.

I believe that would do it for me, Alex. Would it be possible to include user data as well as article data (that´s all the data we need from the Access DB) from the "old" system (Access) and then reuse that data in the MySQL database hooked to VIVVO? If I could get some help with that, I´d be glad to buy VIVVO on monday.

We´ve been looking att PHPCow, VIVVO and another system which name I forgot, but the race is between VIVVO and PHPCow. Right in this moment ut´s VIVVO.
