Table name calc or function

Hi

Maybe I'm missing something obvious but I can't figure out an easy way to capture a table name in a calc or function. I really want a Get(tablename) function that returns the table you are in when you run a script or a get(fieldtablename) that returns the table of a specified field.

I have tried get(activefieldtablename) but this only gets the correct value when you edit a field in the same file that holds the field/table, it does not work if you seperate the data and interface into 2 files. I have wondered if this behaviour with get(activefieldtablename) is a bug because the get(activefieldname) works in the way you would expect in this situation. Any Ideas? Thanks in advance.

Mr. Dawson

Try TableNames ( Get ( FileName ) ).

The TableNames() function is under the developer functions.

I know you that meant Design, not Developer Functions.
