[VNET] 2 question about fields

[George A. Graham Jr.]

SoftI1,

I thought I would put my two cents in.  If the VNET version is anything like
th V4RB version you use the GetField method of a BasObject.  Then you would
set the Name property of the VField object returned by GetField to whatever
you wanted.

dim fld as VField, bo as VBaseObject
...
fld = bo.GetField("oldname")
fld.Name = "newname"

This should work.

Regards,
George

No, it doesn't has such property, but in the field class there is an methode
"SetName()".
I think with this I can rename the field.
But how can I get an access to an existing field?

There isn't such methode, or I can't find it.
Only methods CreateField() and DeleteField().

Best regards
