I have to import an existing vBulletin to my running vBulletin, which means I have to import the database 1 into my database 2. The problem should be to convert the id's in the tables!?

Both boards already hold a high number of topics.

Is the a known way to do this or any script that could help me?

Thx, Myrko.

UPDATE table SET XXXXid=XXXXid+MaxID

MaxID is the highest id number in the corresponding table in the other db. Dump and import.
