Hi,
I'm an amateur programmer and I have been using Delphi but want to start
using C#.
I need to connect to some existing Paradox database tables but I'm not
having any luck with it using C# 2005 Beta 2. I've searched with google and
on MSDN but still can't get it working.
I set up the connection using the wizards and in Server Explorer I can see
the table fields. If I do a SQL Query, I can see the data. The problem is
when I go to create a Data Source so I can use the data in a grid it doesn't
work, I get the following error with every table:
<'C:\DBTEST'..' MODULE'>
Error in SELECT clause: expression near '''.
Missing FROM clause.
Unable to parse query test.
I can't find where I would be able to modify these sql queries to try and
fix it. I've spent hours reading up on connecting with OLEDB or ODBC but
haven't been able to get it working.
If I try and create a TableAdapter I get the following error:
An unexpected error has occurred.
Error Message: ERROR [HYC00][Microsoft][ODBC Paradox Driver] Optional
feature not implemented.
If I try and create a data server using OLEDB, I get a error message saying
"Could not find installable ISAM" when I try and test the connection.
I think I'm close as I can connect to the database and view the data, I just
can't seem to get it in a container I can use in the program. I'm really
lost and even just a point in the right direction, a web page, book anything
would be helpful. Thanks.

Michael,
As a Delphi programmer that made the move to C# a couple of years ago (I
still do some work in Delphi 7), I hate to suggest it, but you might also
consider converting your Paradox tables into MS Access tables. The MS
Access program can easily import and convert them to the mdb format.

Hi guys,
I've written an application in C# that connects to a Paradox table via ODBC.
My code has always worked fine, but now I've moved my application to another
machine, it's stopped working! However, the way in which it has stopped
working is very strange.
Here is an example program that demonstrates my problem:

I've got an old DOS Paradox database that I can't get rid of. We have

we would like to be able to access the Paradox data from MS Access, so
that we can create a few select forms using Access.
I've been trying for a while to get MS Access to work correctly with a
linked Paradox table. It works fine for reading, but when I attempt to

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
