Besides the Clevercomponent datapump, I also use the OD Datapump. Too often, the
OD Datapump will work when the Clevercomponent does not. So I have and use both.
Clearly the Clevercomponent is easier to use.
Make sure you set up the BDE for the table (which I forget to do a lot).
I came from FoxPro so initially did a lot of DBF to FB conversions. Now I'm
pretty much working with FB exclusively.
