Loading string value to a variable from table

Hi,

I would like to know how to store a field value i.e string in a variable.

Ex:

table:

id,name

1,aaa

2,bbb

3,ccc

how to load the filed values into a variable??

I tried peek function let vname = peek('name',0,'table')

but I didn't get any answer

If I keep id field instead of name I got result for id.

Please give the solution for this.

If I understand , you want to load the filed values into variable ...try this in front end

vname

=concat( distinct name, ';' )

Hi mallika,

Try:

Let vname = peek(name,0,'table');

(without enclosing name in single quotes)

That should do the trick.

You should use single quotes in the field name.

Let vname = peek('name',0,'table');

should work as long as table exists and has a field called name.

Can you post your script log?

Hi Mallika,

Try to use FirstSorted Value Function....

Let vName = Firstsortedvalue(Name,0)
