Do you need to store the registration details in a new database too? Why not just create a CF datasource with the PHPBB database and use it with CF too. I've done similar things with a Vbulletin forum and CF and there were no issues.

Hi everybody: I am managing a popular forum which is based on PHPBB. Now I want to make a shoppimg cart that offers more services and I want to do it with Coldfusion. But I need to keep the forum active, plus I need all the registration information of the users because I don't wan to loose so many users. My problem is: I don't know how to store the registration information (usernames, addresses, emails) that are in PHPBB database into myshopping cart database which is in CF/MSSQL! I thought maybe I need to migrate to a CF forum and convert the PHPBB databse into that and then somehow share the registration information of that with the reistraton part of my website but this may make some more troubles. Can you please help me? Thanks Benign ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.
