Randy:
Still not sure how you got there, but if the long names are in the DBC and
you need to extract, cursors always allow long names. If you try to make a
free table from any of it, you'll have the same problem again.
As you've figured out <g>, this is why many of us never use the "long field
name" feature. If it was me (thank God it's not!), and I was going to
maintain this app, I would go back and do whatever it took to get rid of
those long field names.
