| SDK User Fields DataExt |

I've read the FAQ regarding QB custom fields but is there a way to access User Defined data extensions (GUID <> '0') via QODBC?
I realize QODBC isn't going to be able to ADD these fields but, assuming they are already in the company file, is there a way to ACCESS a User Field via QODBC?
Thanks in advance. |

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm sure you are aware of User fields, I'm probably just not explaining myself correctly.
When you define a DataExt through the SDK you can specify a GUID of '0' (this makes it a custom field) or you can supply a normal GUID, which makes the field a user field. The user field cannot be viewed in the QB UI but is only accessible throught the SDK (if the programmer supplies the correct GUID). Since this kind of field MUST exist in the company file I was hoping I could get at it through QODBC.

| QODBC uses the SDK, so yes, it could access user fields defined only from within the SDK, however at this stage we haven't provided the interface from within QODBC. |

| OK. Thanks. Kind of disappointing (I had a specific application in mind) but I guess it WOULD be kind of difficult to provide this functionality in the context of an SQL statement. |
