Look to see if the column you renamed is used in a computed field or view in
addition to what Steve mentioned. Also look at any rules and recheck any
indexes.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Invalid field definition for: surgproc1


We are currently using 6.5++.  We have several tables with a column called
surgproc1 INTEGER.  We must redefine this col. as text.  Since it is in
multiple tables, I first used the following to redefine the col. to a new
name and to text:  ALTER TABLE table1 ALTER COL surgproc1 TO sproc1 TEXT
(6).  I this did for all tables with col. surgproc1 except for the last one
where I did the following:  ALTER TABLE dailycases ALTER COL sproc1 TO
surgproc1 TEXT (6).  Next, I did the following on all the other tables:
ALTER TABLE table ALTER COL sproc1 TO surgproc1 TEXT (6).   Now when I edit
with a form on one of the tables, I get the subject error message.  None of
my forms use surgproc1 in its expressions .  ; Does anyone know why?
