DBF is limited to 8 character fields names (can be different depending
on DBF version).

I don't remember exacly what happends in access if you have for example
txo field named:

CustAddressLine1
CustAddressLine2
Both could be truncated to CustAddr.

Create a query putting your own fieldnames at 8 chars like this.
CustAdd1 :[CustAddressLine1]
CustAdd2 :[CustAddressLine2]

When I get this message it's when I have taken a field from the table
and moved it on the grid more than once.

I am trying to export some queries to dBase files.

However, on some of the queries I get Error 3191, "Cannot define field
more than once"

Anyone care to explain what's wrong?

Thanks.
