BUT when I get to the end, one of two things seems to ALWAYS happen. Either I get a "application has unexpectadly closed" and I am kicked out, or I click the "finish" button and absolutely nothing happens - in fact - it does a "semi-lock-up" and I end up having to task manger force quite out of Enterpeise manager. Needless to say, the data never gets imported.
