Attribute Descriptions for OUTPUTFIELD

Attribute	Usage
alias	Alias name for field in the database. Shapefiles use DBF files to store attribute data, and fields in a DBF are limited to 10 characters. Since other databases often allow more than 10 characters, it is possible to end up with two fields in the DBF file with the same name. ArcIMS will not allow shapefiles with duplicate field names to be used. In this scenario, an alias name should be used.
name	Name of field in the database.
