Set objTableView = _
Application.ActiveExplorer.CurrentView
' Iterate through the ViewFields collection for
' the table view, obtaining the label and the
' XML schema name for each field included in
' the view.
For Each objViewField In objTableView.ViewFields
With objViewField
strOutput = strOutput & .ColumnFormat.Label & _
" (" & .ViewXMLSchemaName & ")" & vbCrLf
