It is perfectly possibly to be running Paradox 7 but still       using Paradox 5 tables. You can in fact have a mix of tables with several       different versions in one Paradox database. I think this is different from       example MS Access where you probably update the whole database when you open       and save it in a later version              > Apparently, the Microsoft Paradox Driver       > doesn't support 7.0.              That is correct BUT it my testing shows that it IS possible to read also       level 7 tables. However performance is very bad, so this is probably your       issue.                     > I have since explored the Merant(?) ODBC driver       > and have made some progress there.
