I just typed in the name. m.micap also gives the same error. The whole thing seems to be related to the word "micap". I remember a 2.5b application I did that the table name the user selected was "cons". Couldn't use the name. Something in win 3.1 must have thought I was calling the Console every time I tried to open the table.
