Very different       beasts.              Steve has a point in that a little knowledge can be a dangerous thing. Be       advised that poorly documented, poorly structured, poorly conceived Paradox       apps are very common, typically consisting of hundreds of tables and       development artifacts (many unused, the result of ad hoc analysis or aborted       development) with little rhyme or reason, or worse - dumped into a single       directory. Going in to something like that with little or no experience in       this is often less desirable than a few extra months' unemployment. :-)              Out of curiosity, what is the migration target platform/language?              --       Larry DiGiovanni              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
