I have created a new database connection to an Access 2000 or greater .mdb.
There are five tables in the database. I can access all but one table.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Please don't give us screen shots, but instead, provide the exact
wording *and steps* needed to see the error.

Sorry Ken - did not know what else to do. Here is the code generated by
dquery, the odd part is the reference in the query res1 to "res.db"
This is the one that fails. Password1 worked perfect. Even though Dquery
provided the error I posted, the code for res1 was streamed below.
When I run the datamodule - there are no fields in the res1 query. If I
remove the .db from the res1 sql statement - there are no fields either.

Ken I posted the .mdb in the binaries. The table "res" fails in dquery, the
table "passwords" works great.
Thanks for your help!!!

Looks like the BDE simply cannot handle the table. Do a Google Groups search
on:

bde "Record size is too big for table"

You might find a hint on how to work around the problem.

Since I don't currently have Access 2000 available to test on, I will
be asking my manager to look at this.

I was able to reproduce the error while using dQuery.

I then used the Navigator and attempted to open RES.
The Error message is:
Database Engine Error: Record size is too big for table.

I'm not doubting there's an error. I can't write this up unless I can
see it, so I can be sure steps are accurate, etc. That's why I've
asked my manager, who I believe does have Access 2000 available, to
take a look at it.
