ODBC driver for Paraodx for Windows 1

[M. Roseman]

Does anyone know where to get the ODBC drivers to read Paradox for Windows 1
files? My version of Excel came with older ODBC drivers that read Paradox
files up to Version 3.5. When I telephone to suppliers, the various
versions of ODBC they have specify dos version numbers like 3.5, 4 or 4.5
etc. Is one of these numbers equivalent to Paradox for Windows 1? Or is
the latter a whole different format?
Grateful for any help

Paradox for Windows 1.0 didn't introduce any new file-format; it uses the 3.5
or 4.0 formats, if memory serves me correctly. So you should have no problems
moving the data back and forth in the scenario you describe.
