I've done extensive searches and cannot seem to find the answer to this question, but I am a DNN noob, so feel free to school me if this is a common question I somehow missed.

I have a customized blog software I was using and now want to migrate to DNN blog as I am planning to migrate the rest of my site to DNN.  From what I gather there is no official way to import posts from 3rd party blogs.  My software is custom, so it wouldn't match any of the common formats anyway (wordpress, etc.). 

The DNN blog table schema seems pretty straight forward -- Blog_Entries for posts, Blog_Comments for comments, and Blog_Tags for tags.  The custom blog I used before has a very simple table schema as well and most fields are a 1:1 match. 

So my question: Is it kosher for me to just directly insert into the SQL tables or would I screw up some dependencies?  If I can't directly insert into those tables, is there an API I can use to mirgate posts? 

Thanks for the confirmation.  I definitely agree with setting up a blank blog site to begin with!  My main concern with the SQL technique was that there were other DNN tables that needed to be updated that weren't obvious to me at first glance.  As long as it's just the ones I identified, then I should be okay.  When I figure it out, I'll post some SQL to this thread, in case it helps somebody else with a similar custom solution down the road.
