Problems exporting database access 2000 file to dbIII format
I created an excel file 'workbook1' with fields PROJECT_NAME, LOCATION,
CEAR_REF_NU, LATITUDE, LONGITUDE, LATDD, LONGDD and imported (Open a new and blank access 2000 file, then File - get external data -Import) the 'workbook1' as access database 2000 file format and upto this it worked fine. Now I want to export his newly created access 2000 file as dBASE III to My Document and it says 'Field will not fit in records'. I did this kind of coversion before using the same export procedure but never I faced this problem. I tried with deleting some fields and keeping only 10 even 5 rows of data with uniform entry style but still receiving the same massage. Does anyone has any idea why it could happen and how to fix this? Thanks. Regards. Sharif -- SHARIF |

Problems exporting database access 2000 file to dbIII format
I just did a test from the NorthWind sample database and was able to
successfully export the Order Details table to My Documents in dBase III format. So my suggestion to you is: 1. Try with the NorthWind sample database. 2. Turn off your Anti-Virus and any anti-spyware programs you may have. -- Arvin Meyer, MCP, MVP http://www.datastrat.com http://www.mvps.org/access http://www.accessmvp.com "Sharif" wrote in message news I created an excel file 'workbook1' with fields PROJECT_NAME, LOCATION, CEAR_REF_NU, LATITUDE, LONGITUDE, LATDD, LONGDD and imported (Open a new and blank access 2000 file, then File - get external data -Import) the 'workbook1' as access database 2000 file format and upto this it worked fine.
