FACT(s) (Environment):

Progress 9.1E

SYMPTOM(s):

Unexpected warning messages loading a df-file

Creating a character field by loading a df-file

** ADD FIELD <field-name> caused a warning **
Can't change Decimals of field "<field-name>". Field type is not DECIMAL.

The df-file was successfully loaded.

The warning message does not appear in Progress 9.1D

The field getting exceptions is a type DATE

Applying Service Pack 1 or later does not resolve the problem

CAUSE:

The .df file has been created in Progress version 7 utility, which puts DECIMAL 0 into it.

FIX:

Ignore the warning or manually remove DECIMAL 0 from the .df file.
If possible, create the .df file in version 9.1E01 (or later), but that would require an update of the database (from version 7 in this case).
