>>LOL!!! Any table that has fields named Field1, Field2, Field3 makes me cringe because that is usually a sign that the person who created it knew nothing about how to normalize data.

True, except that I know vendors who labeled their Oracle fields that way on purpose to force people to use (and pay for) Oracle views against the data with better field labels.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us.
"
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
