Migrate upload module files to filefield

This code is for a Drupal 5 to Drupal 6 migration; it may need altering for D6-D6.

/**
 * Implementation of hook_transport_TYPE_prefilter_alter() for node.
 *
 */
function MYMODULE_transport_node_prefilter_alter($remote_entity) {
  // Get the remote node object.
  $remote_node = $remote_entity->entity;

  // Migrate upload files to filefield files.
  if (isset($remote_node->files) && count($remote_node->files)) {
    $remote_node->field_YOUR_FILEFIELD = array();
    foreach ($remote_node->files as $fid => $file) {
      // Add in missing items that filefield has on a $node.
      $file['uid'] = $remote_node->uid;
      $file['status'] = 1;
      $file['timestamp'] = $remote_node->created;
      $file['data'] = NULL;

      $remote_node->field_YOUR_FILEFIELD[] = $file;
    }
  }
