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

Re: Transferring the customer db

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

Re: Transferring the customer db

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?

Found something useful!

Don't know if it works, but it gives a good clue in the right direction:
