I have to think more about this and I see problems.

When we design report, we use some SQL query.
It produce cursor with e.g. Fileds f1, f2, f3
We see THESE names of fields on left side

And report use NAME OF FIELDs as primary identity.


In docs I have write:
    you can give later in runtime OTHER SELECT,
    but important is to have THE SAME field names !!
