Sergio.. I could not figure out how to get the column in the helper

def sub_tdn_travels_*form_column*(record, input_name)
     column = ??
      column_renders_as(column)
  end

Can the "caller" to this helper pass the column, or can I find it with 
another api call based on the column name?

thanks
