Evan, as others have said, you don't really want *all* the "columns".   
Some of what you're here calling "columns" are actually calculations.  So  for 
example, in your database you might have a field that is BirthDate, and a  
column name that actually says BirthDate as well (if you're lucky!).  But  
you might *also* have a "column" that calls itself Age and is a calculation of 
 today minus the birthdate and then formatted into years, months and days!  
 You wouldn't want that, because it's not primitive raw data.
 
What you really want, is just those dictionary definitions that are  
primitive.  And you want to de-dupe them, as one field of data might have  
three 
different "primitive" definitions (it happens!)
