Returns the name of the current field.

Note This @function is new with Release 6.

Syntax

@ThisName

Return value

name

Text. The name of the current field.

This @function returns null outside a field formula.

Note A hide formula is not a field formula, even though it can be set from the field properties dialog. The hide formula applies to the paragraph containing the field. Since a paragraph can contain several fields, there is no "current field" in this context.

This @function is useful in writing portable code. Use @ThisName to construct references to other fields (for example, in @GetField) that have similar names.
