I've seen a couple utilities along these lines (dbf2mysql and mysql2dbf),
google for those and you should come up with results.

IIRC, one was a perl script that connected to a DBD::MySQL target and a
DBD::XDBF target, and did an 'insert into $dbf select * from
$mysql.$table...'.  And another was a C program that did much the same...
