Well, learn something new every day -- I didn't know it went into the DBC either. However, as you've seen, you can't use DBGETPROP to get it out. Fortunately, the solution is relatively easy: since you have SDT, either fill in the SDT Caption and Comment properties for indexes and use DBCXGetProp to get them (you can also use the SDT SelectTag method to display a list of the captions of tags you've said the user can select from), or use DBCGetProp to read the comment directly from the DBC record.
