Strange error

None of that has any meaning in terms of filepro.

What field edit changed, what was the old edit, what is the new edit?, 
is the new one a custom edit?

What is the name of the field? What about dummy fields or long variable 
names or lookup alias names or array names that might be ambiguous with 
filepro system fields (anything with an @ in it?)

What code operates on that field, or on any indexes built on that field?
Presumably there are lookups to that file using an index built on this 
field? Or instead of lookups, maybe it's a process running directly in 
that file and it errors when saving a record? Or is it when trying to 
load the record in the first place?

Run it in the debugger, and show what the code is trying to do when the 
error happens. Post as much of the actual code as possible, if possible.
