While Dragans approach certainly has merit, your approach might be faster.

Creating a minimal Cursoradapter in Code with table and alias set, then fool around with connection (different ODBC drivers or perhaps even OleDB) and SelectCmd gives better turnaround than for each attempt setting properties 100%.

Going from simple field to get a workable cursor, then add chunks of fields, joins or other SQL is often fastest way to find offending part.

CursorAdapter is adept at adapting itself...
