Hello, I'm searching info about configuring own MetaData in asp.NET Dynamic Site.

For example. I have a table in MS Sql Server with structure shown below:

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[someTable](
    [id] [int] NOT NULL,
    [pname] [nvarchar](20) NULL,
    [FullName] [nvarchar](50) NULL,
    [age] [int] NULL)

and I there are 2 Ms Sql tables (I've created), sysTables and sysColumns.

sysTables:

ID sysTableName TableName TableDescription

1 | someTable |Persons |All Data about Persons in system

sysColumns:

ID TableName sysColumnName ColumnName ColumnDesc ColumnType MUnit

1 |someTable | sometable_pname| Name | Persona Name(ex. John)| nvarchar(20) | null
2 |someTable | sometable_Fullname| Full Name | Persona Name(ex. John Black)| nvarchar(50) | null
3 |someTable | sometable_age| age | Person age| int | null

I want that, in Details/Edit/Insert/List/ListDetails pages use as MetaData sysColumns and sysTableData. Because, for ex. in DetailsPage fullName, it is not beatiful as Full Name .

someIdea, is it possible?

thanks
