 Did you do a fresh checkout and recompile of v.distance ? This was fixed 4
 days ago.

 I can't reproduce this. Using the NC demo data:

 g.copy vect=hospitals,myhosp
 v.distance from=myhosp to=myhosp upload=cat,dist,to_attr to_column=CANCER
 column=to_cat,dist,to_cancer table=my_test_table -a

 works as expected both with dbf and sqlite backend, creating the table
 my_test_table with the three columns.

 Can you try to reproduce with the NC data ?

 If you have the very latest 6.4.3svn version installed, maybe this could
 be a specific windows issue ?
