Perhaps, you have multiply product's database files, right ?
You have "ProductFiles blah blah blah" , right ?

Ok, make an empty products.asc file with only one line: the first one,
defining the columns/field. Like this:

code    description    price    weight


What I mean is, some MV functionality is based on products.asc file rather
than on your real database files. Hmm.. hope this make sense..

Well, just add a 'weight' field to your products.asc file... and this msg
will dissapear...

And when you have such 'database structure' problems, first check your
products.asc file. Make it as real as possible.
