the limitation is not with the Database. I have build a DB with over 100 columns. I assume that you are checking your DB with the IDE DB viewer. The limitation is in the ListBox that can display only 64 visible columns. This is documented under ListBox.

Build a very wide DB, more than 64 columns. Do a Select * From ... then do a fieldcound on your Recordset and you will see that all your columns are there.

Holy, moly!  That's it.  I'm using the IDE viewer.

Thanks!

Should I file a bug report for the IDE behavior?  :-)

  Hi Ed,

I see no reason for a bug report. The IDE viewer does use the RB ListBox. The ListBox limitation of 64 visible columns is a documented limit. I ran into this some time ago and Joe Strout pointed to this limitation.

  Cheers,
  Peter
