Cetin,

thank you for the pointer to the previous discussion, but I think
its subject is not very suitable for my needs. My problem is based
on code pages differences between DOS and Windows FoxPro tables,
not on exact string comparison (SET ANSI etc.).
But, I've found some sort of solution of my problem - see Message
#537026.
Thank you for your help.
