Comment:

 Hi,

 I can reproduce this in a recent nightly build of standalone wingrass
 6.5svn on XP 32bit.

  * start up the wxgui in spearfish
  * add the vector fields map to the layer manager, but don't press ok yet
  * go to the colors tab and select the -a flag but don't add a RGB column
 name, just press ok
  * endless hourglass lockup for wxGUI. (can forcibly kill it by clicking
 the window decoration "X" then [ok] to 'not responding..')

 and our old friend zombie dbf.exe is still lingering in the task manager
 even after grass exits. (see #1276)


 on linux I get this error message in the wxGUI output console:
 {{{
 Command 'd.vect -a map=fields at PERMANENT' failed
 Details: DBMI-DBF driver error:
 Column 'GRASSRGB' not found
 Error in db_open_select_cursor()
 Color definition column (GRASSRGB) not a string. Column must
 be of form RRR:GGG:BBB where RGB values range 0-255.
 }}}
