FieldObject Object

Sample Code - FieldFormat Object

The FieldObject Object represents a field found in a report (that is,special field, database field, parameter field, etc.). This object provides properties for retrieving information for a field in your report. A FieldObject Object is obtained from the Item property of the ReportOptions Object (that is, ReportObjects.Item(Index)), where the index references a special field, database field, parameter field, summary field, or group name field (except BLOB field -- see BlobFieldObject Object).
