    Question,

    I just came from a Joomla! driven site and imported all my posts into WordPress. So far so good.

    Now I have the following problem.

    When people search the internet for my articles (posts) they will find...

    http://www.iamboredsoiblog.eu/Adobe-Flex/flex-datagrid-advanced-paging-and-filtering.html

    But I want them to go to:

    http://www.iamboredsoiblog.eu/2009/01/10/advanced-paging-and-filtering-in-flex-datagrid/

    Is there a way to add permalink rules so this old link will automaticly go to the new link ?

    Thanxs !

    You may want to look at the Redirection plugin (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/redirection/) if you want to redirect. Otherwise, you may want to make it so that your new URLs are the same as your old ones. In the first example, is "Adobe-Flex" the category the post is in? If so, you can change your permalink structure to /%category%/%postname%/ although as the codex page says, it's not recommended for performance reasons.
