   Hello michelle, I just did what you suggested. I'm using MS 2007, I open   
   access, open the csv, click export, paradox, select vs 8 "that's as high   
   as it goes" church pro works in 11, but once I hit save I get "is not a   
   valid name. make sure that it doesn't include invalid characters or   
   punctuation and that it is not to long. my file is is called MAIN and   
   saving it to my desktop.   
      
   PS: I called church pro again and he said paradox should be seperated,   
   just like wordperfect and quattro. I have to call corel b/c this 30 day   
   demo they gave me said it included paradox.
