When users write tables that have columns with unsupported types, they get the message:

Error: Unsupported type

This message would be more useful if error pointed to a specific column:

Error: Column (Species) is of unsupported type

It would also be helpful to tell the user what to do next:

Error: Column of unsupported type. Check that the column types in your R dataframe match the types supported by odbc

We can add documentation to db.rstudio.com that lists supported types here

Ok, the error message now includes the column name and the type that was not supported.
