[SOLVED] SYSCOLUMN Master causes Report Painter to barf
We found an odd problem when having a Master named SYSCOLUMN anywhere in the search APP PATH, Report Painter will throw an "Error Parsing Master File ..." I've seen a few references to people using SYSCOLUMN, so I'm wondering if this is a bug...This message has been edited. Last edited by: Kerry,

SYSCOLUMN is an internal table to WF but does not usually show up when you view a list of available tables. It's more or les a reserved table name, so you should NOT have a table with this name in your path.
