Err.. I need the fields list, not the varnames. For example, my fields are "varname, grouptitle, value, defaultvalue, optioncode, displayorder, advanced, volatile".

From the looks of the screenshot, it's as if the settinggroup is missing.

Run:
[SQL]
SELECT * FROM `settinggroup` WHERE grouptitle = "adcolumn"
[/SQL]

Make sure that returns the adcolumn settinggroup. It's possible your 'displayorder' field isn't set to AUTO INCREMENT. Verify the 'displayorder' field isn't empty for 'adcolumn'. If it is, assign it the next available ID.
