Rebuild Virtuemart + Joomla

[kiro789]

Hello,
I have one Joomla 3 and Virtuemart 3 site. What I want to do is:
I want to build the site again with frish joomla installation and virtuemart (because I have too many exentions and modules installed and I have some viruses in the site) I want to rebuild the site again, but I have 2000 products which I want to move.
My Plan is:
1. I will create a subdomain
2. build a new joomla on the subdomain
3. download and install the virtuemart
4.Buy new Virtuemart template
And than? Which database should I move?
Any help will be good
Regards!

5. move only the tables that you require from the old DB to the new

6. run the Joomla & VM table updaters to ensure they are to date

would this work if I am going from Joomla 2.5 to Joomla 3.0 and VM2 to VM3 in the process?

install a fresh J2.5 -- install VM 2.6

move the required tables

upgrade VM to 3

upgrade J to 3

apply template

Moving the tables is in the phpmyadmin.. that I know.  Is there a tutorial on how to actually move export and import just the VM tables.  Does the prefix matter also?

you just use the database view in phpmyadmin .. tick anything you want .. e.g. all starting with #__virtuemart_xxx

then with chosen tables export..  simple  so you have a .sql file

D/L and open in Notepad++  etc and change the prefix to the new DB one

Drop or rename all the #__virtuemart_xxx tables in the new

then import the .sql file you have

then run the VM Tools table updater
