I'm using SQL Workbench for a number of data extractions where I need

to do this?
Presumably the ODBC Provider/Driver could have an effect on what is
provided by the feature being used to "save the results as XLS". Aside
from that, the question directed instead to a forum about the client
software might be more productive.?
Yet aside from what is provided by a combination of any particular
feature of the client utility and the chosen driver [thus probably not
of any direct interest, not of much value, with regard to resolving the
issue], there is also the availability, separately, of a query of the
catalogs that could provide the desired data; e.g. for the data from
SYSCOLUMNS, for the list of columns of a /file/ from which the data is
being extracted, the following expression might yield the desirable
information [though possibly instead, the first two arguments in reverse
order]:
COALESCE(COLUMN_TEXT, COLUMN_HEADING, COLUMN_NAME)
