I have two databases (Firebird 1.0).

I'm moving data from first (source) database to external file.

After that I'm importing that external file to other (destination) database.

I have a temp table since data has to be transfered with ZIP-drive and
taken to another place, so I can't use any visual data-pump software.

Thanx.
