I think our mails crossed in transit. Anyway...

The SQL query used to obtain the Result should essentially be:
"SELECT * FROM " & DataSource.Table & " WHERE " & DataSource.Filter

So, it can actually be determined by calculation, or maybe more correctly stated, by concatenation.

The data control would then determine which of all columns are actually displayed.
