Is there a way to query the field names and types of a table in either 6.5 or 7.0?? I am writing an application, and in one piece, I need to get the field names and field types of any table. Can this be done??? I have searched both the web and documentation, and I can't seem to find a C function or system table that has this information.

Thanks in advance,
Dale.
