Hi,

I am trying to get field description for specific field. Does any know any function to get field description?

I tried using predefined variables fattr.currfld$ and attr.descr$, but it is not showing the description...

fattr.currfld$ = "tcibd001.citg"
message(attr.descr$)

It is showing empty string.


regards
