I don't think dbf field names are allowed to have spaces in them.  If
somehow you got your field name to have a space in it, I would change it
from LAKE NAME to LAKE_NAME.

Hi everybody
I'm trying to do a query to a .dbf file and I don't know what I'm doing 
wrong
Could you please help me?
Here you have the code I'm using:

MAP FILE (ejem3.map)
--------
MAP
NAME EJ3
SHAPEPATH "/ms_datos"

LAYER
  NAME "lakes"
  DATA lakespy2
  STATUS ON
  TYPE POLYGON
  QUERY
    TEMPLATE ejem3.html
  END
END

END

LAKE NAME is a field of .dbf file
The mistake is: loadLayer(): Unknown identifier. (QUERY):(9)

Thank's
