I am trying to access the description field of thing in a label script for a character sheet. Using field[summary].text will give the description if the thing doesn't have a summary field but I wish to output summary field in one location and the full description on another sheet. I have tried field[description].text but that gives a compile error.

Any help would be appreciated.

All unique ids are limited to 10 characters and "description" is 11 characters in length, so it won't work. For the description, you need to use "field[descript]" instead. You'll find this documented in the wiki if you want more details about the ids used for various other aspects of the data.

Thanks for the information Rob. Where in the wiki is the list? I have been searching it for the past two days looking for the information.

Hmmm. Well it appears that the info isn't in the wiki where I thought it was. Crap. Sorry about that. We need to get that added.

An update to the Wiki would be good. It appears that there hasn't been an update for 6 months. Thanks again for the help Rob.
