not that simple ...

there are 3 joomla tables that are invloved

- jos_users
- jos_core_acl_aro
- jos_core_acl_groups_aro_map

the 3 of these contain information regarding new joomla users.

the tricky part is the password field in jos_users - this is hashed and you should follow a specific hashing process to populate.

there is a component i think called juice? that handles such imports for joomla.

once you do this then you can take a look at the jos_comprofiler table that basically extends the jos_users table.

you need to have a good understanding of databases and php to do this on your own.

good luck!

Thanks very much, nant.

When reading your post, I thought if I load this user info in the standard Joomla tables and use the CB synchronise tool to get them into CB, would that be better?

I could also implement a standard password where upon logging in they have to specify there new password.
I do that on my current website written in ASP as well.

if they are properly loaded to joomla tables (and joomla works with them) then cb tools can sync them.
