I am also not a programmer and numbering the aliases only works if you have fields 1 to 9, when you add that 10th field in, it gets placed between 1 and 2 (ex 1, 10, 2, 3) I have about 60 editable fields and order is important to the non GIS users to follow their forms and fill in. Does anyone have a suggestion for this issue?
UPDATE: I found in other DB forums where they said to pad with 0's giving equal number of characters and that solved the issue. (ex 01,02,...09,10,11)
