I have thousands of images which were shot previous to using either Iview or
expression and them catalogued in Access and excel, is there any way i can
import these files into the software so i don't have to recatalogue thousands
of images.
Thanks

Import is the same as iView --from the File menu or drag&drop files or
folders to catalog.
There is also a free xMedia Reader for Windows here:

While iView/xMedia can obviously catalogue the images, it sounds like
you want the metadata, currently in Access or Excel, to be added to
those images. The best way to do this is by scripting. It's possible
to use Excel macros to drive iView/xMedia and update the metadata.

Thanks

I have already answered his question.

There used to be a scripting manual too, but I couldn't find it on the
iView site. They are mentioned in the main manual but not in as much
detail.
