// MSFreqOffsetColumns stands for MeasurementSet FreqOffset Table

// </etymology>
//
// <synopsis>
// This class provides access to the columns in the MSFreqOffset Table,
// it does the declaration of all the Scalar and ArrayColumns with the
// correct types, so the application programmer doesn't have to
// worry about getting those right. There is an access function
// for every predefined column. Access to non-predefined columns will still
// have to be done with explicit declarations.
// See <linkto class=MSColumns> MSColumns</linkto> for an example.
