We're exporting data from a relational database on a PC to put it into an
Omnis 7 databases on the Mac.

The problem is how to restore all the relations and keep the data in its
appropriate columnns in the kindest, gentlest way possible.

Does anyone have any suggestions about techniques, applications,
utilities, or whatever, that may make our lives a bit easier?
