You can use other fields that you have no use for. You can make a second
pass at the import after having moved the user fields to somewhere else.
After you get the base import done which has all the tricky stuff that ebase
reformats on the fly (phone nos, etc.) and the payments which put stuff into
multiple ebase files, you can use the bare filemaker import code matching on
the legacy id to bring in other fields. We had to do that.
