No. In database development, a Field refers to a sub part of a database record. A series of fields are grouped together in some meaningful way, such an employee record. One field may be called "First Name"; another field may be called "Last Name", etc. These fields grouped together form a single record for a particular employee. The next record would, logically, refer to a different employee.

Columns refer to an aspect of some form of a matrix. In a 2D matrix, fundamental components (called "Cells") can be indexed using Row/Column definitions. A "Row/Column" pair (RC) will point to a Cell at the location of their intersection.
