I am importing data from an older version of the database. Unfortunately when the new database was created it used the same field for what were in the old database several fields.

For example what was in old data::mark, old date::engraving, or old data::illustrated imports to one new field::model.

The difference is if the record is type A then mark imports to model, if the record is type B then engraving imports to model,and if the record is type C then illustrated=model.

So I need to do an import and as each record is imported, inspect it for a type, and then do the appropriate import into model.

The script "Import Records" doesn't let me make any choices on an input record by record basis. Or does it somehow? Any pointers or advice appreciated.

I am not sure you understand your description fully. In the source data, what do the fields Mark, Engraving and Illustrated contain?

They contain text. For example: "Shreve 1920" or "None" or "Pastel".

(I had no hand in the database design. Have to work with what I've got :->)

So do I understand correctly, you have for example:

#    Mark     Engraving    Illustrated 

001  Shreve 

002           None           

003                        Pastel

and you want to end up with:

#    Model

001  Shreve 

002  None           

003  Pastel
