I've found an issue in ALTER TABLE command, it doesn't work adding a field with more than 8 chars of long in VFP cursor.

CREATE CURSOR Temp (iid int)
lcField = "cShort"
**** This Works *******
ALTER TABLE Temp ADD COLUMN (lcField) int
lcLongField = "cLongField"
**** This doesn't work ********
ALTER TABLE Temp ADD COLUMN (lcLongField) int

What can I do? Any work arround?, I've looking for in the Help, but doesn't say anything about this issue.
