converting database from Corel Paradox 8 to MS Access

[Tech Support]

Hello. We have some users on our LAN who have data in
Corel Paradox 8. We are currently upgrading to Microsoft
Access (Office XP or 2003 Version). Is there a way to
convert the database and related queries from Corel
Paradox 8 to MS Access?

thanks in advance for any advice.

You can certainly import the data from paradox.

Ms-access does have the ability to import paradox data.

however, forms, code, queries, and program logic will have to be
re-created....

Do you know where it is actually stated by Microsoft that you can not import
paradox forms into Access 2003. I need to reference the limitation for a
client. Ive stumbled on it in the past, I just can't seem to relocate the
reference. Thanks for your help.

I doubt you'll find any such explicit reference. Access only allows the
import of forms from other Access databases. You can't import forms from
Excel or Word either.
