Martin,

It sounds like it /could/ be related to drivers. If you can store it to
dBASE tables, then why not experiment by storing it in a dBASE character
field and a dBASE memo field. Then, copy the dBASE table to a new
Paradox table. If it carries over to the Paradox field, then you will
know that Paradox can handle it and that the current Paradox table you
are using has the problem. If it does not carry... well, you have more
work to do... :-(

I tried it on my machine. I am using the American edition, English
cp370. I cannot store '�' in the character field (in fact, it corrupts
the record!), but I can store it in the memo. When I USE mydbf; COPY TO
mydb TYPE PARADOX, the memo field transfers OK. Paradox does not like
the '�' in the character field. Like the dbf, the db file will not show
'�', but only '' and the record cause an error message. So, you should
be able to use MEMOs for '�'s!

Good luck.
