EVAL() is pretty brief.
When you have four parameters of a method call using it, it
seems much longer.
Consider standardizing the alias, for example,
USE (aliasstr) alias TARGET AGAIN IN 0
Now, the report can refer to Target.fieldname with no need to wrap it
in a function.
Interesting, but it does not fit my pattern (described next).
Of course, the actual problem you're trying to solve might be more
complex. Please share.
I use an alias of the name of the program running in front of
any specific name so I can see where a table/cursor was opened. I
just bit the bullet and did it anyway.
It sure would be nice if
(aliasasstr+".colname")
worked.
