Allow to transform a smartbox SMO into an SQL SMO

allow to transform Smartbox SMO in SQL SMO without breaking everything, just by reconnecting all the smartbox methods to SQL service object methods.

    It's possible to make this kind of change apart from the K2 system:

    1. Copy the SQL object to its new location (rename if you like) and copy data over if it's a table.

    2. Get the GUID of the current SMO

    3. Delete the SMO

    4. Create a new SMO based on the new location of the SQL object, BUT, here's the trick, use the original GUID of the pre-existing SMO.

    I've moved tables with thousands of records this way, not just from SmartBox (K2 system DB) but also from other DBs to new DB locations.

    Hope this helps!
