Yes, it sounds like this process is going to require something or someone thinking and making decisions.  If the object is to minimize the programming time, then Scott may want to consider using JHImport in addition to your xml to CSV converter.  JHImport would provide the user with a wizard where they could map the csv columns to a real live filepro record.  It provides a visual interface and will create the code necessary to perform the import.  It will then run the import if desired.
