The following command has an error (missing comma):
select article, artcode artname;
	from ArticleMain
However, Visual FoxPro doesn't complain, either at compile time or at runtime!

It does omit the second field. I have wasted hours debugging, due to this missing comma (this usually happens to me at the end of the line, before the ";").

Is this a feature of all versions of Visual FoxPro? I think I remember the error was caught in FoxPro 2.6.
