I must pump 30 tables and to make things easier I use TIB_Cursors.
I have stringlist with tables names and while looping, I create
"SELECT * FROM " + Tablename[i]
for source and destination cursors.
It works fine, except this modifying problem.
I tried to use BeforePost on destination cursor, but I can't see any values from there and my modifications are overwritten.

IMO the AfterFetchRow should allow user to make necessary changes. Currently I can change only new fields that didn't exist in older database.

I dont kow if this is a bug or not, but if in destination database I have field that can't be NULL, but in source database it is NULL, then I get error (Field cannot be NULL) even if I supply the value in AfterFetchRow.
