	dBase tables
	Paradox tables

Allows you to modify the SQL select statement used to retrieve
rows from the source tables (dBase, Paradox, Access, Oracle)
so that you can restrict, reorder and otherwise modify the 
rows to be added to the destination table.


Issues
------
The data that's actually added to the destination table depends
on the columns that exist there. If the table is created on the
fly by Move Data then it will look pretty much like the source.
If the table already exists, only those columns that match
columns in the source table will be updated.

To successfully migrate from CSV/TAB files you need to ensure
the first line of the text file contains the column names.

It is not possible to create Oracle tables on the fly, there
are just too many questions to be answered. So before you move
data to Oracle you need to ensure the destination table exists.

dBase and Paradox require the BDE. Working on replacements for
these. 

Tested on Windows 2000/XP, Access 2000, Oracle 7.3.
