Hi,
Thanks for your help. I am probably being abit special here but we are
tailoring the csv export using 'csv_columns' in the 'Database Configuration'
section.
How would I call category_get_name()?
(abit) like this (this is an old one)
array(id, custom_Client Name, reporter_id, handler_id, date_submitted,
custom_Call Priority, category, reproducibility, status, last_updated,
summary, resolution) -> complex
etc etc

If I understand your question correctly, you're likely going to want to
use the category_get_name() function from category_api. You may also
want to use category_get_id_by_name() - although beware that this is
prone to abuse... you *should* be using category IDs internally within
your code instead of category names. The only time you should ever have
to deal with category names is when you're doing something related to
the user interface (showing category names), category management
(checking duplicate names when adding categories) and perhaps importing
and exporting as well.
Regards,
David
