Description
The ADESC() function fills the <array> with the field descriptions for the table in the current workarea. The ADESC() function returns the number of fields in the current workarea. The array must have been previously declared. The field descriptions will be copied into the array elements until either the array is full or all the descriptions are copied. The SET FIELDS command can be used to restrict the active fields and therefore determine which descriptions are copied into the array.
Example
declare headings[fcount()] adesc(headings)
