I assume you are using the latest version 1.24?

I need some clarifications. By "fileview", do you mean "FieldView" (in Designer) or "InfoView". If it's the latter, are you using the Alventis program or the Designer at the time when you get the error message? Finally, what exactly do you mean by "adding a name" and "update it in the table"? Adding a name - of what? Adding a new Contacts record and entering a new Last Name? Or adding (in Designer) a new database object, i.e., a new Table or Field or InfoView?

The good news is that this type of error almost always means "some information that should be there is missing". Most of the time, it can be alleviated simply by entering the missing info. So there probably exists a very simple workaround that you could use until a new version of Alventis Database is released. But I would need to know the exact circumstances under which this error occurs (I have tried a few things but couldn't reproduce it).

Again, "name" of what (sounds like the name of a table?), and then I'm totally confused about the "drop down table list" (which list, where?) and "the fields".
It's probably something relatively simple, but please clarify what exactly you are doing so that I could hopefully suggest a workaround and file a bug report.
