Tip
Using the Repository's label rather than coding it in your application will ensure that your PC and host applications are consistent and your maintenance is reduced.
If the partition is multilingual, the label will be based on the language defined when the session is open.
If your application needs a longer name, instead of using this function, use the LceGetFieldHeading function to get the field's 3 line Column headings from the Repository.
