Hi, Get all the fields for the form (ARServerUser.getListFieldObjects), then iterate over the resulting List<Field> to find the field that matches your name, then get its id. Or, you can do similar by getting all field ids first (getListField), then iterate over the resulting List<Integer> field id's - getField for the current id & check whether it matches the db name you're looking for. When a match is found, break out of the loop. May be, you want to make this logic into a helpler method.
