Mike,

I did find reference to these attributes in the docs...

https://docs.dataaccess.com/dataflex..._Attribute.htm

...and you'll see that the three name attributes are referred to as "filelist attributes" (under Remarks) and so it's really looking like there is something going wrong with the access to filelist.cfg. The rest of the attributes are coming from the actual table access.

There is a code snippet in that article that shows getting all three "filelist attributes" and my guess is that your test would show them all to be blank after the failure.
