This is over my head. I can't write php that well and all I am after is title, body and file attachment link or file name.

Jim,
I had about 10,000 nodes of a variety of content types in D5 that I had to import to a D6 site with redefined content types. What I ended up doing was writing custom code in PHP to extract the data as TSV files, and then used node_import on the D6 side. It was still an involved and time consuming process but worked pretty well that way. Saved tons of time over manual data input for the kind of volume I had to deal with.
hth, Marty

Is there a way to export nodes and the attachment file names in drupal 5 in to some sort of text file? I have to get the data out of drupal 5 and enter it in to drupal 7 and there really is no way to do it but by hand since I was using the audio module and in drupal 7 I am not using it.
Thanks for any help, I have about 5 years of data here and it is going to slow copying it in to a file then pasting it in to the new site.
