      Hello,

      I read this thread because I wanted to get the value of the birthdayfield in the GW-Addressbook.
      The Fieldname for the Name ist “DisplayName” for example but in the language guide wasn’t any info about the fieldname for the birthday-field.
      So what is the fieldname of the birthdate?

      Thanks in advance

        I don’t think you can access the Birthday field as the field object type is reserved. See the following thread for more information about this issue:

        In Formativ, you have option to use the native GroupWise address books object or the Formativ wrapping of the address books object. See the comments from the Formativ Language guide:

        quote:

        Property AddressBooks
        Read only property which provides access to the Formativ AddressBooks object.

        Syntax
        groupwise.AddressBooks(): Addressbooks

        Value
        This is a Read Only property. It returns a variable of type Addressbooks.

        Remarks
        This object represents the Formativ wrapping of the GroupWise address books. It is provided in order to make it simpler to access fields, especially in multi-lingual GroupWise clients. If you require access to the native GroupWise address books object model, access the GroupWise.Account.AddressBooks property.
