I recently tried to create a new table using Corel Paradox 10. I chose INTERBASE (using the free Interbase 6 download)for the table type. One table was easily created, but a second table, where I chose DATE for the date field created an error, telling me that Interbase was using TIMESTAMP. Unfortunately, TIMESTAMP is not a choice on the field type dropdown dialogue. Going the otherway and using Interbase SQL, I could create a table with a DATE datetype, but Paradox wouldn't let me add it to the datamodel on a form. Any ideas how to get around this problem?, Would I still have the problem with the Corel Linux version and Interbase for FreeBSD/Linux? (I have Corel Office for Linux on order).
