M-Pro Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 Personally I wouldn't even try to do this kind of thing from within osCommerce. Whether you are using a hosting company or have Xamp running on your PC. Use MySqlAdmin, dump the database that has the products then import it onto your new database, again using MySqlAdmin. Whether you do just use the inserts for the data or also use the drop and create tables depends if you've changed anything. Again I thnk its best to drop the whole db, recreate and insert the data.
