Yes the Indian address and area rule sets are available in version 8.7. There is no Indian name rule set, however.

Not really, because I'm not that familiar with the Trillium API. Assuming that it's like the ODBC and DB2 APIs, your code may need to do some or all of the following when reading from Trillium: establish connection environment establish connection set connection properties (eg. transaction isolation...

The fourth argument of your Field() function is actually specifying the return of only one field. So it's doing exactly what you're asking it to do.
