I posted earlier than in UD the following doesn't work (you get a syntax
error):

        SELECT filename WITH fieldname = '["]'

but it turns out that wasn't quite accurate.  'Tis true when ECLTYPE='p',
which is our setting, so I tried:

        select filename WITH fieldname = '["]'

which worked.  Notice that "select" is in lowercase, which I believe
reverses the ECLTYPE, making it 'u'.
