    Default Transferring the customer db

    Ok I am going to be revamping my site. We have over 1300 customers and I was wondering is there a way to just import the customer side of the database or do I have to bring all my products over as well?

    Also is there a way to import the orders as well?

    Thanks in advance

    What does revamping mean? Upgrading from one version to another? Adding a new template?

    Kim thanks for the response

    It is going to be a complete overhaul same ZC version just new graphics and items. Basically redoing the store from the ground up.

    We just need the customer DB so the nice folks don't have to reenter thier info.

    Thanks

    wow, this is exactly the question I have! is there a way to do this?

    DMR

    EDIT:
    searched the forum some more and found these database entries:

    customers
    customers_info
    customers_basket
    customers_basket_attributes

    if I transfer these ones, do I have all the customer info?
