Question:
I'm getting the error "Too many fields in table create" 
when either using DbiCreateTable (BDE API) or 
TTable.Create (Delphi) or TTable->Create (C++ Builder). 
What is the limit to the number of fields I can create 
in a table using these functions?

Answer:
The number of fields varies by database. 
See www.borland.com/devsupport/bde/ti_list/TI2751.HTML
for a complete listing. If your database supports a 
larger number of fields you may create a table with a 
larger number of fields using a Query instead.
