Error after recreating Servers

I had a repository crash and had to reinstall CAVO2.8. I've reimported
my project files but now get an error I don't understand.
"Customer:Name is not compatible with DBSERVER:NAME (check argument
and /or return value) 51447"
This is happening for 1 field in each data server that I created. I've
looked at the arguments and don't see any problem. Could it be an
environment or repository problem? Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you

Grant,

Some time since I played with DBF.

Could it be that :Name is a reserved property of DbServer? Hence you
should not use NAME for column names...

What if you try Customer:FieldGet(#Name)?

Grant,

As Johan indicated, Name is an access of the datasetver class. If you have a
column named "name", you will have to get it via fieldget instead of
oServer:Name. If you were in Vulcan, you could just go oServer:@@name but I
don’t think that they @@ has made its way into the production build of VO.

Regards,
Willie

@@ may be used in VO too (2837)

Right. The use of the field name 'NAME' and column name 'NAME' caused
the problem because I guess it is a reserved word for VO. I have gone
to my data files and renamed all 'NAME' fields to CustName, SuppName,
etc. Now I am modifying the windows and browsers to match. Another
name that causes the same problem is 'DRIVER'.
Allways learning. Thanks for your help.
