Hi all I appreciate all the good answers to some difficult question. I have a system using a Paradox table database written in 5.x. We are linking my system to another...this will involve simple and safe data transfers once per day. The guys who wrote the other package are using Intebase. They requested me to transfer my tables to Intebase and assured me that I will not have to change any code??? My system is running fine on a Paradox table and I will not port my older clients to Intebase ,yet if it is as easy as they said - I can easily support a Paradox and a Intebase system. What I have to avoid is having two sets of code - or to have to test and debug for both systems. What is your thought about this. Will I just be able to port my Paradox table to Intebase and the app will work or will i have to change code. And if i have to adopt a different coding style, will I then have to test it on Paradox and Intebase. I believe there are many issues involved in this and are hesitant to jump in and start working. I also believe that for them to export to a paradox table won't be too bad. Thank you for helping me out Hans van Aardt MicroWorks Ltd.
