[IRCServices Coding] Databases

[Saturn]

My network and another is merging... 

We're going to stay with my copy of services (latest 5.0 beta) .. but they are using 4.2.x ... 

They have abotu 250 users, and I have about the same -- any ideas how we can do the following tasks:

1. Import their 4.2.x services databases (chan.bc and nick.db i think is all we need) into our 5.0beta databases

2. During import, NOT import duplicate nicks or channels.....

My 3rd question is this method of exporting and importing using that database for xml or whatever it is.... how complete is the export/import?  Will all the channel settings access levels, nicks, memos and so on be saved in that format?  If so, then I thin kI can solve my first 2 questions, by simply upgrading their databases to 5.0 and then exporting both out to xml  and use Excel to merge them... 

can anyone help?

Thanks
