Also make sure that you don’t limit your rows to 30 visible in php – that was my mistake to start with – if you make all rows visible in core_config_data you will see the column

Please make sure you are looking at the right table. There are so many tables in magento, and it is easy to miss the one that is needed! The table named “core_config_data” is what should interest you.

[...] is a fairly simple process and there’s lots of information on how to do it. The key steps in the process are emptying magento’s cache [...]

Thanks, this worked brilliantly, although I needed to change the name of the directory into which I installed magento. (This was not mentioned in the description above, but is an important step for it to work. )

And without the captcha I lost all my entered data, I’m so happy I wrote this twice.

Lazzo – thanks for that hint. None of the migration instructions I have seen so far even mention this. This is a very necessary step, and without it Magento Connect Manager shows up no packages available.
