Larry made an off-list reply to my response which was illuminating. He
found an article in the tech info library :
Article Number: 106822
One of the limitations listed re: ODBC is this:
"2.5 A Microsoft Access ODBC client will generate an error message when
trying to perform a SQL import from a FileMaker Pro database containing more
than 33 indexed fields."
names_.103 has more than that, I think. I don't know whether this has
solved the problem for him.
