Hi,

I have a .dbc that I wish to programatically add new fields. I open the .dbc exclusively, the open the table I want to alter exclusively and then...

ALTER TABLE (lcOldFile) ;
ADD COLUMN &mfield c(mwidth)

...however if the field name is greater than 10 characters, then the field name is truncated to 10 characters.

Is there any way programatically to use greater than 10 chr field names.


Regards
Doug Johnston
