Script/Command for elevation values

Hello all.
I hope you are all having a merry festive season. I have a question please: I receive shape file data from a colleague. He is using ESRI ARCGIS. For his purposes, he has to format the elevation attributes of Point features in a particular way; and unfortunately, I have to receive the data in this format from him. I have attached a .png of a point's attributes. This format puts the actual elevation of the point feature in meters (bottom grey strip, Attribute Name ELEVm); instead of putting it where the first grey strip is (Attribute name S1ELEVm).
The consequence of this is that GM reads S1ELEVm as the actual elevation, instead of ELEVm. For my purposes, I require GM to read ELEVm. I have looked through the scripting manual, but cannot seem to find one that re-arranges attribute data sequence. Is there a script /command available to get GM to read ELEVm before, during, or even after importing the Shape File?
Thanks in advance.
