This sounds like a pretty straight forward project. If the database is accessible with user/password, without having to go through the program application that it sounds like is on the CD, then I would be able to generate a SQL script that would allow to you load the data into your system. I would not be able to guarantee the validity of the data without seeing both table structures and knowing if there are any required fields or external table references. I could examine this before the completion of the project and let you know if there would be any data problems before proceeding with the script generation. If you know that both table structures are identical, then that would be a huge plus.
