I know of no way to automate this, and I don't think anybody else does. You just simply need to read the file with various encodings set at parsing, and manually inspect whether you get the right output. Your Paradox manual may be of help to reduce the number of candidate character sets. -- Cheers, Thomas Krichel http://openlib.org/home/krichel skype:thomaskrichel
