Doug: Though several replies tried to explain prefixing, yours addressed my actual confusion for this particular issue. (Yes, I've prefixed field names for some 30 odd years going back to RPG -- yes, RPG, on a S/360 -- though I tend not to, mostly agreeing with Rob's comments.) It just seemed odd to go through the exercise of prefixing and then drop the prefix at runtime. The fact that you now must deal with existing field names in existing files clarifies.
