There may be a problem. The owner of the other domain has tried -- and seemingly failed -- to upgrade the forum herself. I'm not sure she tried it in FTP (which wouldn't work) or if she got into her webhosting to do it. Whichever way she did it, wouldn't it overwrite all the 2.7 stuff in her db? If so, I can't get to the db through FTP (at least, I don't think I can).

Thanks for the FAQ links. The instructions on the second link you gave me would make more sense if I wasn't a total noob doing things by trial and error (mostly error). Is there a more detailed, step-by-step tutorial somewhere?

ETA: I have a forum dump from a couple of weeks ago that is a .sql file. She took it offline shortly afterwards and I doubt there was any activity from the time she sent me the data dump to the time she took it offline. Do I upload that to my SQL database? (I created one specifically for this process.) If so, how? FTP?
