I mean I would like to browse a table from the command window and see the actual field name on the column header instead of the caption that we set on the database for each field. Most often I need to know to name of the field I'm looking at, but the header contains the caption we've set for it.

on key label "f2" wait window varread()
This one is easy for command window.

>Ooops. To my surprise varread() is returning the caption not field name in VFP. But this one worked :
on key label "f2" set message to test.columns(test.activecolumn).controls(2).controlsource

Well I started it like this :
on key label "f2" set message to test.columns(test.activecolumn).controls(2).controlsource
browse name test
