Yes, getcurrentfield(MyGroupname) returns the name of the current dimension of the group.

Thanks. I forgot to menion that my cycle group is definied in the expresion tab of my table, not in the document settings menu option. Is there still a way to do this?

Thanks.

Nope, for expression groups you're out of luck. You might want to use a variable instead to change the expression dynamically. Or use an inline table to hold your expressions.
