Hi,

No it is just a query that shows all record with a blank value in the
Text field (as an error report).

MJ,

Is this a ChangeTo query? If so, sorry about wiping out your data!

You can put in a selection criteria (-ium?) with a ChangeTo command if you
separate them with a comma.

For example, 'blank,changeto "XYZ"' or '_x, > 2000,changeto _x * 1.25'.
The first example will change any blank field to 'XYZ'. The second example
will change any value greater than 2000, increasing it by 125%.

HTH,
Jim Moseley

I know it is a very old version (properly the first windows version).
But the guy doesn't have the manuals anymore and it seems that the
help wasn't installed at the time.

I have a Paradox 4 (DOS) book and that is pretty much what I have to
help me though it.

Is it possible to buy Paradox 11 as a standalone or is it only
available in the Pro version of the Office package ?

Well, that explains the questions!

You are right; it's the first Windows version. The Pdox4 manual can get you
started on the query language ok, but the programming and forms changed
utterly.

Alas, Pdox can only be purchased as part of the Pro Version of WP Office.
However, you can buy older versions, which are cheaper and better, from

OK. I saw a Version 4.5 for DOS and then Paradox 5 (for Windows). So I
just figured that they continued the version number...

Well, actually it's the third windows version if I recall correctly (1.0 -
4.5 - 5.0).

Not that it matter today! :-)
