Hi James.

>A problem that caused “Too many variables” when the Update method was called was fixed. This error occurred with folks using Codebook for Mere Mortals because of a bug in Oak Leaf’s project setup routine: it created a table with an invalid header. Oak Leaf has since corrected this bug.

An earlier version of CBMM neglected to write an "end of header" byte to the headers of tables it created. Although this didn't cause a problem in VFP, SDT used this byte to find the end of the header area, so if it was missing, we had a problem. Oak Leaf has since corrected this problem, and SDT 5.1e eliminates the issue for existing tables by using a different mechanism to find the end of the header area than looking for that byte.
