Hi Scott,

tbh I'm a little confused as to what to expect as a result of a d2rq
import. I'd kind of assummed I would see the following (pardon me if I
have the semantics slightly wrong) ...

table names -> classes. e.g. table EMPLOYEE would result in an
EMPLOYEE class
rows -> instance of a class. e.g. a row in the EMPLOYEE table would
become an instance in the class EMPLOYEEE
column names -> objectProperties e.g. column name "FIRST_NAME" becomes
objectProperty hasFirstName
column values -> property values. e.g. the value 'Eric' in the
FIRST_NAME column would produce these triples

<employee#1> rdfsType:employee
<employee#1> hasFirstName 'Eric'

I thought this could happen without any FKs defined. I assume that in
order to import the FKs I would need to explicitly define those after
the import.

What I am seeing is
- a subclasses of owlthing for each table.
- propoerties defined for each column

I don;t see any instances after import.

Cheers
Derek
