   windows 8.1?  I found one reference to such a  problem if the .db file was a   
   pdox 4 or 5 type. I think my tables are 7 and up, but when I add the 3rd alias   
   in the alias manager, it    
   crashes paradox and I had to reinstall. I did rename the directory with 4   
   letters.   
      
   There is no specific problem with windows 8, but as for any 32 / 64  bit   
   windows if you want long file name (path or table name) you'll have to   
   use a recent BDE (if possible 5.11 or 5.2) and have your tables in version 7

   or it is useless, so is there some way to get the images ported with the   
   tables? There are too    
   many to try to reenter.   
      
   No need to change, Paradox rocks !   
      
   But if you really want to export your date it is still possible of   
   course depending of how your images are stored (binary or graphic field,   
   or simply the path to the external file). Just write a little script   
   with a TCursor scan.
