Wow this failed in dbase 2019, but works with the headers correct in dbase 11.  Did something change with 2019 to make this fail?  Or is there something I need to change in 2019??

> I am trying to export an .ods spreadsheet file into dbase.  Libre allows this as an easy way to make a dbase .dbf from an .ods or xlsx file.  I have done this before successfully.  This time instead of the first line of the spreadsheet becoming field names, the field names are the headers of the spreadsheet such as a b c d......    I may have had this problem a long time ago and fixed it somehow.  Anyone have a clue on this?   Thanks
