UPDATE 2:
weep, weep.
It's the font. :-(
I haven't worked out what the specific issues are, but it simply
fails with many, many fonts. Don't know whether it is a problem with
Postscript, TrueType, Unicode or what.
I suppose I should lodge this as a bug - quite serious, in my opinion
- since the ability to output images from specific controls was one
of the features of 2.7.2 I believe. I've never used bugzilla before
(!) is it simple to do?

Update:
I can of course make this work by grabbing the relevant portion of
screen (rather than specifying the field):
put globalloc (Topleft of field fname) into tl
put globalloc (botright of field fname) into br
export snapshot from rect tl,br to file imgPath as PNG
But this is a bit risky as I can't guarantee that there will be
nothing on top of the field (e.g. floating palette) or that the
field will completely contained on screen.

Hello everyone.
Can anybody help with this ...
I am exporting PNGs from fields, using this syntax:
export snapshot from field fname to file imgPath as PNG
This works just fine on about 30 or so fields, but when I come to
one particular field it fails with error message:
export: can't write to file, mask file, or container
All the fields are opaque. If I switch this field to non-
opaque... it works fine... or if I export as JPEG it works fine!
The only difference (that I can see) between this field and others
is that it is larger than the others.
Has anyone come across this problem before? Could there be some
other property that I have overlooked that is causing the problem?
I am pulling my hair out at this one (and at my age I don't have
too much to lose)
