Update:
1a) Your attempt at importing the data failed. Many of the forums from the UBB had been duplicated - they were listed more than once on the forums list. When I'd attempt to delete (through the control panel) the duplicate forums, it would give an error and say that it couldn't find the forum.
1b) The duplicated forums were all very old unused forums which had been turned off long ago and, perhaps, had not been imported properly into the current version of the UBB Classic.
1c) My solution to that problem was to delete the unused forums from UBB Classic then to re-install the vBulletin (including deleting all of the data in the database) and re-import the data from the UBB.
2) My assumption, from the post above, that the error I made was to have used the wrong file extention on the Impex configuration script, seems now not to have been the case. Even with the extention properly set to .php3, I'm in precisely the same boat as I was before. When I click the Import/Export button and select UBB Classic, all I see is:

Jerry: Apparently you know what was not done, or what was done improperly, when I started this thread. Would you be so kind as to share?
Thank you.
