I am trying to open a database from an old Vbulletin forum so I can take some of the data out and use it for key words and phrases. What is my best way of doing this?

Thank You

You can open it via Excel. Data ->Import External data->New DSN. You just need the database IP Addres, a username and password with SELECT permission on the tables or views.
