Has anybody ever tried to use CF to suck all of the postings out of a Web Crossings forum/database and dump the records into a database? I have a LARGE WebX discussion forum that I need to convert to SQL Server (though, probably Access at first). I'm not sure how to go about this ... weather there would be some way using <CFHTTP> to access the live database or ... ??? (The WebX db is proprietary and not accessible through ODBC or any kind of SQL commands -- at least from what tech support has told me previously). Unfortunately, WebX is not in XML (yet). It does, however, use it's own SMGL-based language ... but this is only relevant if you first export discussions from WebX into a text file. I've looked at the file and it looks like a nightmare to approach from a RegEx point of view. I'm sure wondering what the best approach would be to such a project and if anybody has done it before and maybe has some code to share.
