Check for cpdbf() on those tables - that should give you your codepage. Then set that codepage (in config.fpw) before creating your tables, or use home()+"tools\cpzero\cpzero.prg" to set that codepage on your existing tables. First parameter is (full) filename, second (numeric) the codepage number. You'd need to do that with all of your tables where you may have Portuguese text - dbf, scx, vcx, mnx, frx, lbx, pjx etc. Keep in mind that if you have pieces of code in different codepages in the same project, it will recompile everything every build, even if you don't tell it to.

Then try with Portuguese characters. It should work.

Alternately, you can set all your character fields to binary, which should prevent any conversion, and set your .fontcharset property of all your classes (anything that has a .caption or .value should have that property too) and _screen and what have you to use your codepage. The first approach, however, is better, less work and fewer things to cover.
