    Question Diesel in fields?

    Greetings Gang,

    I seem to recall that fields can use diesel expressions - but I cant locate the help portion that states this. I am trying to achieve this:

    "%<$(-, 0 , " & \AcObjProp Object(%<\_ObjId " & CStr(Circ1.ObjectID) & ">%).Center \f ""%lu2%pt1"")>%"

    This is supposed to inverse the X value of a circle centre. At the moment it produces an inavlid value symbol (####) - meaning that I have either my structure is wrong or diesel isnt allowed.

    !! Help !! Please. Thx.

    Hi Kevin

    Please note I've *moved* this Topic (Thread) from the VBA Forum to this one as I believe it would be better served here.

    Thanks, Mike

    AFAIK, you cannot nest fields. Your post does not have a correct Diesel expression. Do you have the source where you got that idea from?
