>>>Hi All,
>>>my application receives and processes a number of tables a day. Tables are created in FP2.6DOS without codepage info. Application's default codepage is 1251. I am looking for a way to open FP2.6DOS tables without the codepage dialog and nevertheless marking them as codepage 866.
>>>TIA.
>>
>>Kamil, try SET CPDIALOG OFF.

>Hi Nick,
>The problem of SET CPDIALOG OFF is that no character convertion will be applyed to the fields in a table. So if we take a table without a codepage info and that table was created under 866 codepage then the char fields will not be converted to, say, 1251.
