I was just about to sign in and update everyone --
For some reason (still investigating) I ran into a quirk in dealing with the import of the database -- I believe it has to do with deleted users and their 'orphaned' topics. Since I don't want to lose any posts, I'm working on a patch that will basically create a 'deleted' user and re-match the posts to that account so they are not lost. When I ran the counts, the software was going to delete some 1000+ topics and around 2500+ replies that were orphaned... So I'm basically trying to sort that out. My original tests of the importing only showed about 100 topics would be orphaned - but when combining the old archives into the database that brought quite a few more orphans which I don't want to lose --
Sorry for the lack of response here -- I meant to post this earlier but got sidetracked [B)]
