You can use the method to export/import the all tables at once 
<http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/06/the-database-abstraction-layer#CSV--all-tables-at-once->
 
- that will handle all the references automatically. If you want to limit 
it to a subset of the tables, just run the export/import commands after 
defining only those tables (any tables not yet defined will be invisible to 
the DAL and therefore won't be exported/imported).
