Hi all:

    I've got a problem with a view in VFP6 that has stopped working.  The 
error that I'm getting from the original view is:

        "Base table fields have been changed and no longer match view 
fields.  View field properties cannot be set."

    Oddly, I can still BROWSE the view without complaint.  I just can't seem 
to use it within a report.

    I've tried deleting the offending view and recreating it, but that 
didn't seem to help, which I found even odder behavior than the error that I 
am getting.

    Some obvious questions, with hopefully helpful answers:

        HAS the base table actually changed?  Yes.  Some fields have been 
added to the table, and at least one field has increased in size.

        Can you browse the new view?  Absolutely.  Just like with the old 
view.  They look the same, too, when browsed.

    Can anyone shed some light on this issue?  This is really getting 
frustrating.  I suppose that I could rework the report to eliminate the view 
if I must, but that's kind of a drastic "last-step" solution (at least in my 
mind).

    Thanks!

        Jon
