Question

Answer 1

+4 A:

You have to cast it to an SPCalculatedField:

SPFieldCalculated cf = (SPFieldCalculated)myItem.Fields["CIDandTitle"];
string value = cf.GetFieldValueForEdit(myItem["CIDandTitle"]);

or

string value = cf.GetFieldValueAsText(myItem["CIDandTitle"]);

That works; as does cf.GetFieldValueAsText(myItem["CIDandTitle"]). This approach seems clunky though.

less clunky than splitting on the semicolon and hash...

I had issues trying to get a float this way. I used myItem.GetFormattedValue("floatValue");

Answer 2

A:

I have a similar field of type note in which values are stored ';#' seperated. As I am storing the multiple values in databse seperated by ';#'.

In edit mode i display these values in listbox which will support multiple selection.

Only issue is in view properties mode the values are shown as ';#' seperated and my reqmt is to show them as ',' seperated.

I have the function GetValueasText in my custom field - but no effect..

Any input on this will be appreciated.

Thanks, Poonam

Poonam, you should ask a new question with your problem.

this doesn't answer the question. If you want to add this as a comment to the original question, then that would be appropriate.
