My field types on certain tables have changed from:

ItemsTableItemCode: TStringField;
ItemsTableItemDescription: TStringField;

To this as an example:

StringField9: TStringField;
StringField10: TStringField;

How do I restore my field list on tables to meaningful names of the table.

What causes this?

One way to get them back, if you've not got too many event handlers on the
fields, is to select all the fields in the fields editor, press delete to
remove them all, and then add them back.

I've done something similar in the past by selecting all fields in the
Fields editor, copying them with Ctrl-C, and then pasting them into another
fields editor (e.g. for a second TTable onto the same Table).
