Question:

When I try to activate my Table/Query I get an error stating
"invalid field type", what does this mean?

Answer:

Microsoft no longer supports DB-LIB with the release of MS SQL Server 7
which means that
DB-LIB doesn't have support for the 4 new data types that SQL 7 offers -
namely NTEXT,
NCHAR, NVARCHAR and GUID. In order to successfully use new types offered by
SQL Server 7
and above you'll need to use CT-LIB. This should eliminate the error
message.
"

Does anyone know how can I change the DB-Lib to CT-Lib ?

Thanks in Advance

I don't know why you posted 5 times, but I will point out that CT-LIB is
the way to access later version of Sybase SQL Server.... microsoft SQL
Server does not use CT-LIB at all to my knowledge, to access the new MS
SQL Server 7 features, you need to use OLE-DB or ADO.

I believe MS changed the native access for SQL Server from DB-LIB to ODBC
between 6.5 and 7. Their management tools (e.g. backup/restore) now require
the latest ODBC driver 3.7.xxx to be present.
