Field-descs vs variables?

[Calvert, Douglas]

Hello,
 I am having trouble understanding the difference between the
field-descs and variables. I changed the version entry in field-descs to
flavor. Flavor now shows up under the select columns page but when the
search results are printed the name of the column is vers. Can someone
explain the difference between these two to me? Also how hard is it to
get a field-desc to behave like a variable?
Thanks a lot...
