Can we import user profiles using Business Data Connection in Configure Synchronization Connection in User Profile Service Application in SharePoint 2010.

Why i am doing this:

I want to crawl MOSS 2007 User Profile Database in SharePoint 2010.

Please Advice!!!

Microsoft Technet has good guidance for this upgrade aspect. I believe you want to follow the steps in the upgrade guide to Upgrade the Shared Services Database.

There are quite a few steps, but this powershell script is a key to upgrading the user profiles from the SharePoint 2007 SSP Database to the SharePoint 2010 User Profile Service database:

New-SPProfileServiceApplication -applicationpool <ApplicationPoolName> -Name <ServiceApplicationName> -Profiledbname <DatabaseName> [-Profiledbserver <ServerName>]
