I am needing to do some coding to manipulate data stored in tables that are
a part of a database.

I had assumed that one can open the DBC as a table and get access to the
long field names but when I tried it I found only some of the long field
names embedded in the property memo field. Can someone tell me where the
long names are stored?

So far the only way I have found to specify a field name in code is to use
the 10 character name. This is quite awkward especially when those names
are completely nonsensical.  Is there a syntax that lets one use the long
names or a simple way to translate them to 10 character names?

Thanks in advance,

Joe
