Author dbase field name changes by itself

Hello everyone,
A problem has surfaced in the last few months in applications I've written in vdb2k, and now vdbPlus version 2.0, although I'm not sure the cause is version specific. Field names change by themselves. Example, one logical field sh_heat changes to sh_ an
other example, logical field MP0715_3 changed to MP07
This is a rare problem, only 4 times in 2 years, and in the case of sh_heat has happend 3 times.
Best guesses.... In my code, or a bug?

It would almost have to be in your code. However, I couldn't tell you
what specifically would be causing it ...

Thanks Ken,
I will go over the code for anything that sticks out as a possible cause and post some of it tomorrow. Hopefully someone will spot a possible problem.
