System Requirements

All author code and examples in this book were created using Paradox 7. To run the sample projects, you may need to have Paradox 7 installed for them to work.

Paradox 7 is a new product. Many of the third-party programs on this CD-ROM were developed for Paradox 5. Fortunately, a high degree of compatibility exists between the two versions.

However, as with all new programming environments, one hundred percent compatibility with the past can not be guaranteed. Our objective in assembling the collection of software on this CD is to acquaint you with leading developers of 3rd party products for Borland Paradox 7. Should you encounter a compatibility problem, we invite you to contact the vendor directly. Complete contact information for each vendor is included on this CD-ROM. Simply press the Company Info radio button at the bottom of each screen to view contact information for the current vendor.
