Win 10 and Installation Issue

We need to upgrade some machines from Win 7 to Win 10, and they need to be able to run Paradox 8.
- Will that work?
- Is there a way to install from a CD to a machine with no CD drive?
Thanks.
Gary

Steven,
Thank you for the information. At this point a new installation of 8 on a Windows 10 machine does not even open!
I saw a really good thread you moderated on the complexities and causes of this problem and the fixes.
We have a complicated system of Paradox forms and tables that is essential to the business functions. I am going to have to make this work. If I buy Wordperfect Office Professional Edition (one of the more current versions), how much trouble am I likely to encounter?
I am not the original programmer but have done a fair amount of it (although not recently). I'm a little rusty. When you say to recompile, are you talking about re-delivering forms with code attached? What about scripts? It's just a little hazy trying to remember what that might be referring to.
Thanks.
Gary

I use ezdialog and it works with pdox11.
The only anomaly that I have found is that the up/down arrow keys no longer scroll the contents of lookup dialogs

When you run software developed with Paradox 8 in the newest versions of Paradox, the software runs much slower. We have very large databases and processes that took 30 seconds will now take 2 minutes. For small databases this may not be noticed. Queries and other processes are just as fast.

Good to know. I wonder how you are defining "very large" databases, so I can determine what I might expect.

We define large databases as over 500,000 records. We have a number of our own databases greater than 10 million.
We generally run client database in segments of 600-700 thousand records. All Paradox 8 code runs slower with the newest versions - we own three.

Rich

All code runs 4-5 times slower.
