I have the same problem - my store is in mysql 4.0.27 and I need to get it into mysql 5.x My host will not assist me - they just said Export the old DB and then Import into the new DB. Sounds great on paper, but I get errors and nothing shows up. I am trying to export in SQL, save as file, export type - INSERT. I know enough to be able to say - I don't know what I am doing. Could you please advise the proper settings to be able to export the 4.0.27 and Import into 5.0.81 MySql - Thanks in advance for your help.
