Stop searching!
Yannick Leduc just provided me with the right syntax:
ColumnName(i) = ColumnInfo(TableName, "col"+i, COL_INFO_NAME)
Thanks Yannick

Subject: MI Problem with ColumnName statement
Hi all,
I encountered a problem with the second parameter of the
ColumnInfo
statement :
I want to find the name of a column from its number. To do
so, I pass the
column number as second parameter (instead of the column
name) as indicated
in the documentation. That's where the problem arises; when
I pass the
column number as shown in the code below, it gives an error
message : "Field
Coli does not exists in table..."
I tried many other ways to write it ("Col"i, Coli) wtihout
success.
I also tried to issue a Run Command statement but it would
give an
"Unrecognized command : ColumnName" error message.
Any idea/suggestion/workaround?
Thanks in advance
Dim WinNum as integer
Dim WinId as integer
Dim MapNb as integer
Dim LayerNb as integer
Dim LayerNum as integer
Dim TableName as string
Dim ColNb as smallint
Dim i as smallint
Dim ColumnName() as string
For WinNum = 1 to MapNb
WinId = WindowID(WinNum)
LayerNb = MapperInfo(WinId,
MAPPER_INFO_LAYERS)
For LayerNum = 1 to LayerNb
TableName = LayerInfo(WinId,
LayerNum,
LAYER_INFO_NAME)
ColNb = TableInfo(TableName,
TAB_INFO_NCOLS)
ReDim ColumnName(ColNb)
For i = 1 to ColNb
ColumnName(i) =
ColumnInfo(TableName, "coli", COL_INFO_NAME)
Next
