Depends on how nitpicky you want to be. :)
The answer to your question is most likely "No". (But you could, of course,
be nitpicky and say that "field" refers to one single value of a single data
row, while "column" refers to the entire, well, column of fields in the
table as a whole.)
Take care,
Hendrik (part-time nitpicker)
