Let (

_cs = Get ( ConnectionState ) ;

_local_fq_fields = ExecuteSQL ( "SELECT t.BaseTableName, f.FieldName FROM FileMaker_Fields AS f JOIN FileMaker_Tables as t ON t.TableName =
f.TableName WHERE t.BaseFileName=?"  ; "::" ; ""; 
If ( _cs = 0 ; Get ( FileName ) ; Get ( FileName ) & " (" & Get ( HostName ) & ")" )
)
];

_local_fq_fields

)

Returns list of all Field Names for all LOCAL Tables in the current FileMaker Pro v12 file. This requires FileMaker Pro v12 as it uses the ExecuteSQL function. It will only return a list of Field Names for Table Occurrences that are on the relationship graph - if you have a Local Table with no associated Table Occurrences on the graph it will not appear in the result.
