Hi,

I'm coding a function which needs to return the text contents of a
field, given only the field ID.

The FldGetTextPtr() function reqires the field ptr as an argument, which
makes life hard.

(For reasons which take too long to explain, there's no way of passing
the function the field's pointer).

While there are Form functions to convert between Form ID and Form
pointer, there's nothing equivalent for fields.

How can I, given just the field ID, find out the field's pointer, then
get the field's text value?

(If necessary, I can also pass the function the form pointer or ID for
the form that contains the field).

Thanks for help

David
