I have a feeling (more like a vague recollection of the limitation) that you're right. The SQL statement can only be 255 characters long. There are a couple of options.
1. declare an alias for the table names
... FROM prodprov p... and then use p. instead of prodprov.
2. use a view
3. build and execute the SQL (to a cursor) in the load event and base the grid on the cursor.
Cheers,
