I meed to copy existing data, a FPW 2.6 application to an equivalent VFP application. Some of the new tables have a few additional fields, otherwise the field names are the same. What is the best way to copy the data from the old application to the new one. Some issues.

What I am consider, after backing up data, is to

1. Zap tables in new system
2. Use SQL Select to create an intermediate file (allows some house cleaning) from old tables.
3. Append data from step 2 in to new tables.

Is this a reasonable approach?
