Paradox tables memo fields

Hi,

I am accesing some paradox table using the ADO .net and everthing worked
fine until I had to save something in a memo field. Everytime I try to
update a memo field I get an error. Is there any know issues with this kind
of fields in Paradox tables or am I doing something wrong.

It would help if you could quote the text of the error message you received,
but based on what you've said so far, I suspect (if your other updates are
working to other field types) that it has something to do with .NET data
types vs. Paradox data types.

Hi, I am pulling over 400 different metrics from an Excel spreadsheet into Access (97). Conceptually, each row represents a single set of these 400 metrics. However, because of the 255 column limit in Access I am faced with a dilemma: Do I create two tables (1 with 255 columns, the other with 145) and a lookup table that stores which metric is found in which table? Obviously this method would require VBA logic to coordinate any time I

Using MS Access 2003 I am looking for a function that will search the entire Tables Collection for a specific string in text or memo fields. For example if I enter "widget" it interrogates the entire tables collection and returns the table name and column name where the word is found, otherwise returns "Not Found" Any help with this greatly appreciated.

In the article "Delete Duplicate Records From Access Tables" By Danny Lesandrini writes the following: This final suggestion is the most flexible and accurate. Given any table, it generates a recordset of appropriate fields (excluding memo and binary image fields) and dynamically loops through the fields' collection to perform the recordset compare. In this example, two recordsets are used, one being a clone of the other. When a...

After working with Microsoft for almost 2 weeks, the conclusion is that the Jet engine cannot work with some Paradox tables. By some, I mean Paradox tables that contain no indexes. Some of the old Paradox tables, especially those that were created in the old Delphi 1 era, contained no indexes. .NET doen't like that, so it basically ignores any INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE sql command.

I am looking to improve redundancy in a database. If I have several different tables having identical child tables (design, not data) for holding images, is it possible to have all these different tables reference a single common child table to hold their images? If so, how do I maintain referential integrity? I have thought about creating an additional column in the image table called MasterTBL (beside ID, MasterID & IMG) to hold...

This is mainly a speed question. In this example: I have a QuotesHdr table that has a few memo fields. If these memo fields are used extensively by some users, and if their are a large number of records in QuotesHdr, should I break out the memo fields into a separate table? The thinking here is that, for Quotes selection dropdowns that display all entries in QuotesHdr for selection, I would think that the entire record comes down over...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
