Compiled Code Too Long

[StacyStacy]

Hi.

I need help. I am joining 2 tables together by whereby I need at lease 75 fields just from one table. After writing the code, I received an error msg, "Required clause not present in command". So as a result, I am re-writing the code, line by line, sometimes, code by code and testing it. I have been successful up until the end when I now receive the following error message: "Compiled code for this line too long"? Why is this happening and what should I do? Here's a sample:

select jt1.ssn, jt1.wia_area, jt1.entertdte1,jt1.lastname, jt1.firstname, jt1.initial, jt1.appdate, jt1.address, jt1.city, jt1.county, jt1.state,;
jt1.zipcode, jt1.areacode, jt1.phone, jt1.age, jt1.birthday, jt1.sex, jt1.citizenshp, jt1.selectserv, jt1.education, jt1.highgrade, jt1.ethnic,;
jt1.indalaskan, jt1.asian, jt1.black, jt1.pacisle, jt1.white, jt1.hispanic, jt1.offender, jt1.limitedeng, jt1.homeless, jt1.runaway, jt1.teenparent,;

where (jt1.ssn=jt2.ssn and jt1.wia_area=jt2.wia_area and jt1.entertdte1=jt2.entertdte1);
into table partdata

Thanks,

I got it. Thanks. I did start a new thread but did not receive a response until much later that day.

Otherwise, I will still try your suggestions for the FoxPro issue and I will let you know of my results.

Thanks again everyone! )
