Go to a field based on a calculation??

[Crapples]

Is it possible to go to a field based on the result of a calculation? For example, elsewhere in a script I may set a variable called $fieldName to the value of "Field6". Later in the script I want to go to that field and get the contents from it. Can I go to Field = $fieldName?

I don't see this option anywhere, but it seems like something people would want to do pretty commonly. Is there a workaround?

It's definitely a workaround, but you could name the fields in question as objects, then use the "go to object" script step, which can be populated using a variable.

Hope that helps.
