      From: janvoz@seznam.cz              Hi,              the -e switch helped me a lot: after installing Win XP (and Paradox 8), all       changes I made in "Preferences" were successfully written into Registry.       However, at the same time pdoxwork.ini file has been created on exit (almost       empty, with 2 lines or so). Next time Paradox started, it did not read the       preferences from the Registry, but from this stupid file. I did not find       any way how to stop Paradox creating this file, so in the end I made all       neccessary changes manually in Registry, and since then I always start Paradox       with -e -n switches to ensure that 1) the Registry settings remain unchanged,       and 2) pdoxwork.ini is not created anymore.              No idea about the usability of the -f switch, though.              Regards,              Jan                            Anne Wainwright |
