Reply To: Access GroupWise userdefined fields ?

[Support 1a]

Yes. Here is some sample code that lists the values associated with a user defined field in an address book of your choice.

You will need to edit the value of the constants USER_DEFINED_FIELD to be the name of your field, and ADDRESS_BOOK_NAME to be the name of the address book you wish to access.

I hope this helps.
