Bertie,

Not sure what you are trying to do, we need a clearer description of
what "select *" returns and what you want to end up in the index. But 
to answer your question The transformations happen after DIH has
performed the SQL statement. In fact the rows output from the SQL
command are assigned to the DIH fields and then any transformations
are applied. The examples in 
        http://wiki.apache.org/solr/DataImportHandler
are quite good.
