Hi Karl,

1) once I have hear about such problem, and solution was -- create db on
Windows. Then both Win and MAC was happy.

2) can you play with my V4RB Example1, to change it in such way that String
fields have German. Make sure it create fields with no German.
Then please send to me. I'd like in the first turn debug this problem.
