I have data in an old Paradox db (v3 or 4??)(text data type).
When I pull data into a vb text box the ascii codes of the characters have changed.
ex.. In the paradox db I have a greek alpha (ascii 224)
When it is displayed in a text box it has been converter to ascii 97 (lower case a).
Anybody know if there is a way to prevent this from happening?

Thanks,

cruzmsl
