Data manipulation

[Sharksfan]

So I'm up late tonight for my real job running a data migration from an old system to a new system.

I'm doing a test run of a migration of a total 12,000,000 or so records. I've been doing this kind of work for far too long and I've gotten really, REALLY good at manipulating data.

So - just curious....can anyone think of some data manipulation you'd like to see done? Anything like comparing two non-similar data sources, etc? Add MySQL functionality for things like Wordpress?

It's late - I'm tired - brain wandering...

what are the datatypes? you parsing anything into csv?

I prefer not to....in this case I'm using a proprietary format that is essentially similar to CSV. We're mapping data from an old system to the new upgraded system so most of the structures are similar but not necessarily identical by a long shot.
