Tooltip from Field comments

[JulianLisher]

Hi

I am trying to have a custom function where I can add a tooltip to a field which is the comments set in the field defination.

The calc is:

FieldComment ( Get ( FileName ) ; FieldName )

But when I use this either with the sysntax FieldComment ( Get ( FileName ) ; "FieldName" ) it does not work. Please help. :

You dont really need a custom function for this. However you can not natively pass the field name dynamically for this. you would either have to hard code it or have it only activate when the field is active.

FieldComment ( Get ( FileName ) ; "TableOccurence::FieldName" )

FieldComment ( Get ( FileName ) ;Get ( ActiveFieldName ) )
