Shorten the field names to 10 charaters or less!

>Here's a strange. 2 cursors are created with the exact same structure. The first cursor is populated with data and written out to a temp.dbf file. The second cursor is selected and the data from the temp.dbf is appended. The data comes into the second cursor OK except that 2 of the fields that should have data are blank. What gives?
