Head throbbing from data import problems

[jax_deity]

The database on my new store has a zen_ prefix added on all of the tables. The store I'm trying to export the products and categories doesn't. (example "zen_categories_description" versus "categories_description") is there anyway I can add that prefix to all of the tables or is there another way to go about importing all of the products and categories?
Thanks,
Jax

There are various options.

a) You could see whether the EasyPopulate addon will work for your needs. Some folks like it. It doesn't care about the table prefixes.

b) If your "other" store is no longer "live", then you could rename the desired tables before exporting them.

c) You could export them with the prefix name, and then import them to your new server. Then rename them after importing.

This of course assumes you're using the SAME version of Zen Cart on both sites.

EasyPopulate was the ticket for me. I think I could have done the third option as well though ep was probably faster. I really appreciate your assistance!
