dBase to SQL Issues

In order to export the geodatabase, I must first convert the files to dBase and read them in a third party program. Once I have the registered version I will be able to convert directly to SQL scrips or .CSV files.

The one problem that I am facing now is that the ObjectID field, which is a primary key, does not convert over to dBase format. It's of type "objectid", which, when displayed in DBF Manager only shows up as zeros. I will have to find a way to assign object ID's in a different type so they can be transferred over.
