Using PdoxDOS 4.5, importing a comma delimited file. During the initial scan
of the file, Pdox reports "Invalid format in record <whatever>". Upon
inspecting the text file, I find nothing wrong with the line that I can see.
Here's an example:

I haven't used a database since I retired six years ago and never used
Paradox before.  My office used Alpha 4 and I was able to work with
that in setting up an application to handle our trust account (I was
an attorney).

I need to strip all punctation out of an alpha field leaving just the the
a-z, A-Z, and 0 - 9 characters.
Can this be done via a QBE or SQL Query ? and if so can anyone give an
example

Howdy all.
Have a form where I have a tableframe in which I've changed the display of
the purge field (A,1) to a checkbox obj. I tried the code below in the

I have a custom Real Estate application I built in Pdox 10.0. I am
downloading 2 ascii text files and importing to separate tables. Each
is from a different source. One is tax roll data the other Multiple
Listing Data. I need to compare the 2 tables and the address fileds

I have a Paradox database powering a website. For reasons I won't go
into here, I need to move some data from one table to the other.
What I usually do is I download the files associated with each table,
open both of them on Borland Database Desktop and start copying/pasting

How can I ramdomly select a list of records from an existing table?
For example: 500,000 names divided by 20,000 samples = 25. The N is
25, meaning samples would be sent to every 25th name on the list.
Any help will be appreciated?

Our community has bought the Village Shop from its previous owner, and
we find ourselves with an EPOS system ("Samstock v3") that is based on
Paradox tables via a copy of the Borland Database Engine. I need to

My monthly text files downloads (from mainfame) are regularly reaching the
2gig+. I usually import the file into Paradox but the database is starting
to reach the 2gig limit. Besides chopping off fileds from the Paradox file

I have a form with an MRO attached (may not be the right word) to a
table via the data model.
I would like to automate the creation of the table, so I undefined the
MRO and removed the table from the data model.  When the form opens, I
