> That returns a record, not one string, right?
if you need a string, write a model method to return it:
// Function in a model or AppModel if required application wide
function findFieldValue($field, $conditions=array())
{
if (isset($field) && !empty($condistions))
{
if ($record = $this->find('first',
array('conditions'=>$conditions)))
{
return $record[$this->alias][$field];
}
}
}
// called in controller
$single_field_value_of_record_1 =
$this->Model->findFieldValue('single_field', array('id'=>1));
