    Hi BASMA,

    can you check the SQLDICTIONARY table, TABLEFIELDIDTABLE table and TABLEIDTABLE table in SSMS.

    the problem is I haven't the name of field to use FieldId2Name

    I have only the fieldLabel fieldNume  and the name of table

    Dont compare FieldId with FieldNum in your table. Use Name and SQLName field as relation and check.

    I mean YourTableName.FieldLabel == SqlDictionary.Name.

    Thanks,

    May I know how you are populating data in your custom table.

    Also regarding this your below comment, I think you don't need Name field as you already have tableId and fieldNum. You can try creating a Display method for 'Name' in your custom table instea dof field.

    'the problem is I haven't the name of field to use FieldId2Name

    I have only the fieldLabel fieldNume  and the name of table'

    In that case you need to use DictTable class to get the table related details.

    Other option will be inserting the field name instead of field label in your custom table.

    Thanks,
