Does anyone know if Paradox 4.5 for DOS scripts (8.sc*) can be updated or
converted into Paradox 5 for Windows or higher versions. Can reports from
Paradox 4.5 for DOS be updated or converted too. Thanks.

The only value to the .sc is that the program they represent has
already been developed so that it is *only* a conversion. While
someone is converting, they can also answer the "why did I do it that
way?" type of questions, perhaps optimizing as they go through. I do
think, however, that the by-script conversion would only be worthwhile
for quick stand-alone scripts; picking and choosing snippets of
pdoxDos code to put in this method or that custom procedure would take
forever. However, anyone with both PdoxDOS and PdoxWIN (i.e., us
older guys <grimace>) could do that conversion for ya.
The forms and reports are still a washout. There is an older object
converter that you can probably still find. It's version specific
(Pdoxwin 4.5/5 (?)) but the old DOS stuff, once converted, looks
pathetic under windows - IMHO, it was not even worthwhile as a
starting point.
Lastly, as Kasey said, the tables are good-to-go.

1. Convert WP5.1 DOS file to Paradox 4.5 Win
I need assitance with converting a large WordPerfect 5.1 (DOS) document to Paradox 4.5
(Windows) database.
The WP51 file consists of records set up as a Parallel Column with Block Protect. Each
record has 7 fields. I want to be able to convert these "records" to Paradox database
records so I can extract specific records for tables, reports, etc.
Thank you in advance.
