>AFIELDS() returns the long table name in position 12--but why?? The table name is an attribute of the table, not the column so I don't understand why the table name is returned at all. Thanks for any help in understanding this...
Chaim,
Why not? There are other columns of the afields array (actually all starting from 10) that refer to the table properties.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
