[GIS] Permanently reordering fields in feature class programmatically using ArcObjects with VB.Net

arcgis-10.1arcobjectsvb.net

Would someone be able to share the logistics on how to permanently programmatically reorder fields in a feature class with ArcObjects, VB.Net.

I want to be able to do this in the geodatabase not in the IOrderedLayerFields Interface of the Carto assembly.

Even with ArcObjects, the only way to permanently reorder fields in a table or feature class is to drop the table completely and re-create it. There is a very popular ArcGIS Idea to get this implemented, so vote for it if you want to see such a feature.
