(Q) When I try to save a table, I keep getting the error message
"Too many fields defined". What's causing this to come up?
(A) Access keeps an internal count of total number of fields in a table
and has a limit of 255 fields per table. Each time you modify a field or add a field, this
count increases by 1. When you delete a field, Access does NOT reset this counter. So it's
possible for you to have less than 255 fields and still get this error message.
If your field count is less than 255, just compact the database again
which should reset the internal field count counter.
