Subject create/import from Flashfiler revisited :D

Hi

I can create the following definition of my FF table...

[MASTER]
FILETYPE=FIXED
CHARSET=ascii
Field1=IndexNum,CHAR,14,0,0
Field2=Number,CHAR,13,0,14
Field3=Description,CHAR,50,0,27
Field4=SubDept,CHAR,3,0,77
Field5=Unit,CHAR,16,0,80
[...]
Field28=DateCounted,DBIDATE,8,0,423
Field29=Variation,FLOAT,16,4,431
Field30=Deleted,BOOL,1,0,447
Field31=Numeric,FLOAT,16,4,448
Field32=Updated,DBIDATE,8,0,464
Field33=HasGST,BOOL,1,0,472
Field34=HasWET,BOOL,1,0,473

This is supposed to be able to be used to create a BDE based table
such as a dbf3/4 table. How could I go about using this table schema
to create a Firebird table - I have IBExperts (personal edition) if
that helps any.

Can I somehow create an "interim" table that I could then use to
generate the FB table. I do have approx 30 tables to do.

Further, I can use the program that created the schema to export the
data in several formats including SDF fixed fields and csv. I presume
from what (little so far) I have read that I could use the SDF and the
"external" file to import the data into the newly created FB table.

ANY assistance here would be greatly appreciated and help me make the
leap from FF to FB :D.

While I am waiting for an answer I will review what I can in the doc's
I have downloaded...

Kind regards

Peter
