saved phpbb users table only can I import?

[helpmehost]

Hi

Just curious, I had another phpbb forum, I am not interested in the posts just the users login and password so that they can login to my vbulletin
what I did was to remove all other info from my previous sql and just
kept the phpbb_users table
Can I use the import tool to bring these users to my new forum?

Honestly I doubt Impex will be able to work with just that one table. For starters you would need to import at least the usergroups first.

ok I upload user group and user database
tried to import but my import was not correct and I had other
import scripts in my system not just phpbb so it means I made a mess because I get

ImpEx Database errormysql error: Invalid SQL: DELETE FROM datastore WHERE title='ImpExSession';

bla bla

Unfortunately it appears that I was correct and you will not be able to import just using those tables. You will need to restore the entire database.

I would suggest just restoring the phpBB database, then just running the usergroup and user module.
