"represent" is an attribute of the field object, not the row, so you can do: listformat = db.npcs.id.represent(row=r) In that case, the value of listformat will be the value of the "name" field from the row. For the "format" attribute, if it is a string (i.e., like '%(name)s'), then you can do something like: db.npcs._format % row If "format" is a lambda, then it would be: db.npcs._format(row) Anthony
