I've got a couple of paradox tables that i access through the BDE. Is there any way i can backup or archive these tables through coding using delphi

Cheers,
Joell

Joell,

Yes, in the BeforeDelete event of the user's dataset, add code that appends a new record into the Backup dataset and then copies the fieldvalues into the new records.

That's all you need.

Hope this helps...

If you're looking at doing a full copy of the Paradox table you might want to use the 'DbiCopyTable()' process.
