The guy from IS called me and he himself could not say what he did <g>. He just kept saying "This is what I did, what I could" (exactly his words in a very accented English). The funny thing is I asked him if the original database is SQL server and he could not answer. The good thing is that in addition to converting tables to Paradox he also converted tables to MS Access. So I have a bunch of .MDB files too.
