>>>Hi everybody,
>>>
>>>Assuming I have a table (view) open in a datasession with unknown alias, is there a simple way of finding the value of a field from that table?
>>>
>>>In other words, I have, say, 20 tables or views (CAs) open in the DS. One of the tables has cClient_Account_Number field, that I'd like to get a value from. It's not 100% guarantee, that the table, containing this field, is currently opened in this datasession. But if the table (or view) with this field is opened, I'd like to get the value from the current record.

>>>What is the easiest way to get this info? I can think of looping through aUsed array and checking type["Alias.field_name"].
