Paradox with interbase

Iīm working with borland paradox 4.5 DOS version.

Is it possible to read Interbase tables on line with paradox 4.5 DOS ?

How can I convert Interbase tables into paradox 4.5 database files ?

Thank you !

Look for IBDataPump, that's a software that would do that!

That's simply impossible: IBDataPump uses the BDE, and i'm pretty sure the BDE recognizes paradox for dos tables...

Are you sure your tables are not corrupted?

If you want, you can attach a zip with a small table from your app here, and i'll check if my Pdox for windows can read it.

Bye!

Excuse me but i'm wrong: i understood that you wanted to convert Pdox DOS tables TO interbase, when you want to convert FROM interbase TO Paradox for DOS, or to connect to interbase from pdox dos...

I'don't know at all if possible, but surely IBDataPump doesn't help: it is a software to pass data FROM pdox TO interbase, which is the exact opposite of what you're trying to do.

Then perhaps the only solution would be to convert to .txt files - comma or tab delimited?
