C:\Documents and Settings\scbcbis\Application Data\Corel\Paradox100\ConfigDir "scbcbis"? That's his window's User Account. Yours will be different - mine is "JimMoseley". Jim Moseley |
etc. folder. Doesn't this entry just point to your paradox.pic file,
wherever it may be?

paradox.pic is the builtin pictures.
If you can't see Application data, it's probably because you have Show
hidden files unchecked in Windows Explorer.

What's you registry setting for [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Corel\Paradox\10.0\Conf iguration\UsrPicDir] |
Bjorvand.JUDA\Programdata\Corel\Paradox100\ConfigD ir

Do you have any pdoxwin.ini or pdoxwork.ini ( with more than an empty [Folder] section) files in the same folder as the table? |
Quote:
|
Does the table have a .FAM file or a .TV file? |
Quote:

Does the table have a lookup table? |
Now on to the solution.
My Paradox installation was brand new on a totally fresh computer. That's
why it is very strange that it reported the following:
"c:\pdoxwin\paradox\paradox.pic contains an invalid path"
I have NEVER installed anything into c:\pdoxwin, and the path does not
exist - and it has never existed either.
As far as I can remember that was the default location for Paradox 1.0 for
Windows roughly 14 years ago ...
So I searched the registry for this strange path, and at the following
location:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Corel\Paradox\10.0\Conf iguration\ParadoxDir]
I found two key/value pairs:
(Standard): c:\pdoxwin\paradox
Default: C:\Programfiler\Corel\WordPerfect Office 2002\Programs
I changed (Standard) into C:\Programfiler\Corel\WordPerfect Office
2002\Paradox where I have previously found the paradox.pic file on my
machine, and now everything works smoothly.
Merry Christmas!
Sincerely,
Anders T. B.

Dear everybody, I just installed Paradox 10 on a new machine, and I get a strange error every time I try to open a table: (Translated from Norwegian  "c:\pdoxwin\paradox\paradox.pic contains an invalid path" The directory c:\pdoxwin\ or c:\pdoxwin\paradox does not exist on my machine.
