field object type

[Charity]

I do not know its name and that is why I can not find it.

If I am in a field and I want to know what type of field it is, whether check box, popup, radio button, edit etc what is that called? It is not FieldType. I looked all through Get and Design. Can someone please help me out?

Oh. I mean if I want my script to know what it is. I will know by looking but my scripts do not have eyes. :laugh:

Filemaker is not very strong on consistent naming. If you look at the Inspector, it's called "Control style". In the help, they call it "field formatting" - and you use the FieldStyle() function to retrieve it.

Oh yes! I read it but it said it was for "field formatting applied" and I did not continue reading the rest of it. I must be more thorough next time and read everything. Thank you again for helping me.
