I am currently writing an application to access an old DBASE III .DBF
file.  Unfortunately, the programmer who designed the original database
named a date-field with the name DATE!  Pretty lame on his part if you
ask me, but that's another story.  Anyway, I need to preform an SQL
query on the date field, but when I attempt to use the WHERE clause
using the date-field named DATE, I receive the error message "Invalid
Use Of SQL Keyword DATE."  Of course, this makes perfect sense to me,
but does anyone out there know "how" to circumvent the field-name and
use a pseudo-name to specify the date-field in the query even though
it's named "DATE" in the database???
