Bonjour Luc,

Something changed in the International features of VFP 6.0 If I remember well it will only accept to tag codepages that are supported by your OS. There have been several discussions about this last year and you mitght want to do a search to have the final word.

That said, you should probably be able to APPEND FROM D:\TEST\dostable AS 437 and have all your accents back, since 437 and 850 are equivalent for the French signs.
