I have an existing table in an app, along the lines of:

I now need to be able to associate additional information (e.g.
printing
order) with each field. Is it a bad idea to use the (fully qualified)
field name as a foreign key to link back to the table meta-data? Is
there a better way?
You're going to have to be *much* more specific about what you're
trying to do/talk about. A complete example would be best.
