I now tested my program with CodeWeavers' wine and it's the same error.
My attempts to debug this were quite... unsuccessfull. If anyone wants
to help me I could also send a compiled testprogram.
I also found that it can happen not only on column names but also on
table field names. But most work ok. So it can't be that a general error
as a wrong string function (I guess a lot more programs would have
problems if it were this basic). Another guess is Variants. There are
quite some calls to Variant functions but I couldn't find a culprit.

Thanks
