    Which version of vb do I have?

    Hi there

    I have an old vb database that I'd like to upload to a new install of vb. I'd like to use IMPEX to import it - can I? Also, do I need to know which version of vb it was? If so, how can I figure that out? Is there something in the mysql tables I can look up in phpmyadmin?

    Thanks for any tips .... cheers ... twobob

    It's a chicken-or-egg thing. You'd need to know the version in order to know where to look for the version number. If there is an upgradelog table, look at the last entry in that table. This should be the version of that database.

      Hi - thanks for the tip. Was it the script table I needed to look up within the vb_upgradelog table? If so, the last row was upgrade_360rc3.php ... which I guess means I should be using the vb_36 system folder for the IMPEX import?

        Yeah, it looks like this db is vB 3.6 Release Candidate 3.
