[comp.databases] HELP!! Paradox advice needed

agrawal@pollux.usc.edu (Amitabh Agrawal) (10/17/90)

I am posting this for a friend of mine(currently in India) who is
programming in Paradox. I wanted to know whether there is any list of
known bugs that is available via anonymous ftp(or some other means).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately Borland will not publish their bug list for all to see.  There
was a article in the Feb., 1990 issue of Data Based Advisor that listed many
common error messages in Paradox and the probable causes for those error
messages.  These were undocumented error messages in addition to the error
codes and messages given in the PAL User's Guide Manual.  The BORDB forum on
Compuserve is also an excellent place to learn of bugs in Paradox.  If you
have a specific problem in Paradox then by all means go ahead and ask for help
here on comp.databases.
