For instance, if I wanted to get the data from a field called "Customer_Name_Last," I could just use that field name in the query. This would also be helpful for display items. My idea a long time ago was to have "hidden" tables that tracked field names. For instance, _fieldnames would be a table in any database that stored the field names for each respective field. I don't know if this is applicable or not. I also created a _mask table that (obviously) served to mask data input, and thought that a _relationship table might be nice to indicate what fields were related to what fields in what [other] database(s).
