Yes, i tried using the ODBC driver. That one works but all the data models
are lost when switching to the odbc driver. Also the programs do not
behave
the same way as with informix sql links. To get the forms and re****ts
running again would mean to go through every form and to fix the behaviour
which is too much effort for staying in paradox.

Ciao, Dirk.
