Thanks for the reply. I started a mysql v3 on a new system with the old "backup" data directory and type:
mysqldump -p henrik > henrik.sql This dumps the DB? To restore, I move henrik.sql to the current 4.0.14 server and type: mysql -p henrik < henrik.sql except it complains the DB does not exists. I can create the DB in Mysql 4 and then restore (and it works), but it is not clear to me I will have restored everything properly.

I'm not aware of any scripts to just munge the old style data into the new but I'm happy to be corrected on that!

I need to extract one of the DB's from that backup and place it into my current production v4.0.14 mysql DB. Can this be done? How?
