Paradox Application Conversions

We can convert your existing Paradox for Windows or Paradox for DOS application to another technology such as Borland Delphi or Visual Studio.Net (C# or VB.Net). In addition, we can convert your application into a web application using either ASP or ASP.Net/ISAPI.

Paradox Maintenance Programming

Our position on legacy systems written in Paradox is that if you don't have the budget for a conversion to a leading technology, then leave the application in the tool it is in now. The problem is finding programmers that can program in that tool. Luckily, Prestwood can fulfill your legacy programming needs. We can add that needed feature or remove that annoying bug. We can even upgrade you to version 9, 10, 11, 12, etc. To get started, open a support account or contact us now.

Supported Paradox Versions

Paradox for Windows

We support all versions of Paradox including Paradox for DOS and Paradox for Windows. Mike Prestwood (our President & CEO) has written best selling books on Paradox 1/4.5, 5, 7, and 9. The Paradox community considers his books to be "the" books to have. He skipped version 8 which added some web features (those features are covered in his best selling book on version 9. Mike also skipped version 10. Corel added one major feature to Paradox 10 (string lists) and removed one major feature (the application framework). Version 11 neither added nor removed any major features. Paradox Version 12, Paradox X3 (version 13), and Paradox X4 (version 14) are essentially the same code base as Paradox 11 with just the version info changed.

Paradox for Linux

Corel released Paradox 9 for Linux using the wine emulator. Mike Prestwood contributed four chapters on Paradox for Linux to the book WordPerfect Office 2000 for Linux.
