We were pulling what appeared to be junk (but wasn't really, just the codepage was set diferent on tables) from some of the tables because the codepage was set to 437 (MSDOS) and we needed it to 1252 (Windows). We finally used cpzero.prg to reset the codepage on the tables, and set it in the config.fpw file using codepage=1252 and set cpdialog=off in the main program. That resolved our issues. I would do a search on codepage in the UT and checkout what you find. I got help that way in resolving our issues.
