发明名称 Methods for importing data between database management programs
摘要 A computer-implemented method in a computer for importing data from an import database to a target database. The method includes displaying a plurality of import items associated with one of the plurality of import records in an import window of a display screen of the computer. The plurality of import items represent at least one of the plurality of import data fields and the plurality of import headers associated with the one of the plurality of import records. There is further included displaying a target window in the display screen, thereby causing the target window to appear simultaneously with the import window in the display screen. The target window includes a plurality of target data fields corresponding to a plurality of target headers and substantially resembles one of a window employed for manual data entry of records and a window employed for data display for the database management program. The method further includes moving an import item of the plurality of import items in the import window to a position in the target window. The position corresponds to a target item of a target record of the target database, the target item representing a target data field if the item represents one of the plurality of import data fields. The target item represents a target header if the item represents one of the plurality of import headers.
