Core Data Import

Can anyone suggest a simple way to get data from an existing SQLite database into a Core Data file? Some time ago I began a personal project in REALbasic that I would like to move to Cocoa. The only thing keeping me from doing so is my inability to get my existing data out of the REALSQLDatabase file and into the SQL file used by Core Data. I tried taking a look at the structure of the SQL file created by Core Data and editing a SQL dump from the existing file and executing that edited dump with BBEdit, but, although the data was inserted according to the sqlite3 command line tool, it doesn't appear when I open the file in my application (although the records that I created from within the application do still appear).

My existing REALSQLDatabase file has only a single table, so relationships aren't an issue, and there are only about seven or eight fields.

I'm an Objective-C newbie, and so I have no idea how to begin writing custom code to perform the action in Objective-C. If I can do this with AppleScript Studio, I could write the code, but I don't know how to integrate Core Data and AppleScript Studio. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Chuck Ross
