OK is there a way or even a program that will allow me to insert/import posts from either excel or csv etc into a forum?

Even if it is a remote software package that someone is familiar with. I have found a few but the programs are MORE work than actually posting. I can Generate all the posts quickly with excel etc then export that to almost any format needed but the question is HOW do I import them so they show up right in VB, now I realize that doing it this way means I will have to shut DOWN the forum or at least ALL posting ability while this is being done and I haev NP wiht that. Just need to figure out the fastest and easiest way to actually IMPORT the posts. Even if it means I have to import them ALL into ONE Forum then use the mass move feature is fine

Thank You

Without writing custom PHP code, this is not possible with default vBulletin.
