what drivers are you using to access the DBF file? The are errors with some
ODBC drivers which result in this error the first time they are initialised.
Trapping the error and trying again is the work around for this.
The fact that you error message mentions Paradox is a little weird, dbase is
not paradox. Perhaps you could post the connections string which is causing
the problem?
