    A few resources which may help you:

    - http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/faq.ph...faq_oscommerce Migrating from another MySQL system
    - http://modhole.com/index.php?module=...N_position=5:5 for EasyPopulate-Free

    - http://www.dataweb.no/dm/ Data Manager
    - http://www.sqlyog.com Windows-based database mgr for MySQL

    Using any of those tools will still require that you learn the schema of the Zen Cart database, which is documented in part here: http://www.zen-cart.com/wiki/index.p...atabase_Schema

    You will need to convert all your data into fields to match appropriate tables/fields in the Zen Cart database infrastructure.
