If you use dBase 5, Paradox or another data base program that uses the 
"Borland Database Engine", you may experience compatibility problems.  
In this case, copy the files from the "BDE" sub-directory into the same 
common directory as the other programs ("..\dbe"), keeping the most recent files.  
Next, change the registers as explained below.

Among the files, there are two files with the extension ".reg".  
These files specify registry parameters for the "Borland Database Engine".  
Just double-click on the file to take into account the parameters it contains.
