 * I have had to setup my multisite wordpress blog from scratch after quite a serious
   injection of malicious code.I exported posts from most of the sites with wordpress
   export but unfortunately skipped a couple of them.
 * I only need to restore posts from a couple of blogs e.g wp_8_posts
 * I have a test site which I erased completely and have uploaded the backup database
   of my live site
 * How (if possible) can I introduce these into the test site database in order 
   to then view them as posts in the test site?
 * Thanks in advance
    Mark M.

 * I have managed to figure it out! 🙂
 * After uploading the entire database I imported wp_8_posts into the test site 
   database and then I renamed it as wp_posts e Voila!
