O.K., one more step before I purchase VB.
I have SMF forum installed in the same database as Joomla, I would like to split that, to have a SMF in one DB and Joomla in other, so if something goes wrong with implex SMF->VB it doesn't screw the Joomla also.
How can I do that, SMF have prefix "smf_" and joomla have "jom_", is there any easy way to move "smf_" part to new DB but for security reasons leave it also in original DB.
I hope you'll understand the problem, thanks!

Impex can only work on the assumption that it is importing the default database structure of the system you are importing. If there are modifications to that structure, then the import may not work.

and you have to know that ImpEx is not touching the actual content of your database.. it is reading only the content, and translate it once it is on the vBulletin side... nothing else.
