I was unable to find a free version of dBase so I can't really create the file here to simulate the issue.
Could you please post a link to a .dbf file with more than 1024 fields for me please? Put like 3 or 4 records as examples on it, just so I can do all tests.

Thanks!

Here is one of the DBF's that i'm using:

http://cid-d95738776c6cf0d0.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/.Public/USAERF07.DBF

as I said it retrieves me 1024 fild instead of 1625

Victor,

Are you sure this file has 1625 fields? I opened the file with DBF Viewer and I only see 1100 fields. Also I changed the logic a little bit to calculate the number of fields based on the header length and I also obtain 1100 fields.
Can you please confirm the number of fields in the file? Also, what is the version of dbase you are using?

Thanks!

Ooops, i got confused with other dbf, that i'm using, but that file is over 1024 fields and  y need all of them
 [2009-01-13 06:01 UTC] victorjavierss at live dot com dot mx 
I'm guess is dBase IV

get_dbf_head assumes a max of 1024 fields. Below is a patch which removes the 1024 limit and resizes the memory buffer if there are more than 1024 fields.

Could reproduce and code shows it gets only 1024 fields.
