Report fields missing when running ver. 5/7 under 8/9

Running Paradox 5\7 Reports in Corel Paradox 8/9

The information in this document applies to:
Paradox« 8.0 for Windows« 95/NT

Problem :

When opening Paradox 5 reports in Corel« Paradox« 7 or Corel Paradox 8, certain fields are visible in design mode, but do not show when the report is run.


Answer:

To resolve this, open the report in Design mode, and select the fields that do not show during runtime. Right-click and choose Properties. Disable the æTransparentÆ option, and save the report again.

Details:

When bringing forms or reports into a more recent version of Paradox, they should be recompiled or delivered into the proper format. For some reason, fields can tend to be set to æTransparentÆ when opened in Paradox 8/9 .
