Hi, Hugo,
Thanks for the reply and for showing me the option to replace the macro.
I have alot of code written in this manner. Had I known that macros in SQL statement fool the compiler, I would have done otherwise.

>>I could get rid of the macro if I am only including fields from one cursor/table which is in this case, so your solution is correct. But when I select them from multiple tables or cursors, which I have to in most cases, then I need to include the alias names lest there should be same field names with different values.
