 * I got a database of doctors. I would like to add it to my wordpress blog, so 
   that users will be able to add doctors, add comments to them and to browse that
   database.
 * How can I do it. Thanks for help!

 * In my opinion, you want to run a separate database for the doctors, and just 
   have calling code available to users of wordpress. This isn’t just a matter of
   converting a database, but requires custom written code.
 * Perhaps you should cruise the plugins to see if there is something you could 
   use. I might recommend xdforum at this point. It’s a straight forward forum system
   that runs within wordpress. It *might* be possible to install xdforum, and then
   convert your database into individual threads. As I’m not familiar with the software,
   I couldn’t advise on that.
