Perhaps one of the fields is unrecognised? Have you tried a query like

SELECT FIELD FROM user_table

where FIELD is one actual field that exists? See if that works, and that
keep on adding fields until you find the one which is of a type which
may be invalid (or not supported).

No more than your complaint is.

For some more entirely free information on database development with
Turbo C++, see http://www.drbob42.com/examines/examin83.htm
