TRANSFER( cSource, cTarget [, xcCondition ] )

Purpose

Copy or move data from one table to another.

Arguments

     cSource -- source table

     cTarget -- destination table

     xcCondition -- expression which selects records to copy (to be
                    macro-expanded for each record)

     lNoMenu -- if passed and .T.; append to cTarget if it already exists;
                defaults to offering a menu so the user may choose to add
                to or overwrite cTarget if it already exists
