I think you're right.

Receipt Number in payments_.102, Action Number in actions_.102,
Contact Number in contacts_.102, are all auto-enter fields, for
example. It's good practice to include a record number field in a
file, and they appear in many of the ebase files. Once you unchecked
it for names, it probably defaulted that way for the others, so it's
probable that you're OK.

The .103 files are the data files, and that's all you need to transfer.
