>I'm using vfp 6.0 as a report generator tied to a cache' database via ODBC. The cache' data uses long field names which I have no problem with when I bring the data up into a cursor. However I want to save certain retrieved views and look at them retrospectively. To do this I execute a COPY TO command. The problem is that the COPY truncates field names, thus my original reporting foxpro code is looking for long field name that no longer exist.

You have to copy to a database.
COPY TO MyResult DATABASE MyDatabase
