These properties indicate the original field and table names associated with a Field object. For example, you could use these properties to determine the original source of the data in a query field whose name is unrelated to the name of the field in the underlying table.
Note
The SourceTable property will not return a meaningful table name if used on a Field object in the Fields collection of a table-type Recordset object.
