Hi Jacque,

What am I missing?
The easiest way around this is the wordiest:
getPropertyValues the long id of (word 1 of pitemname word 2 of pitemname
of group TestControls)
but in general you would probably be better off using the id rather than the
abbreviated name.

Pete said that he's using the abbreviated name, which *does* contain the
control type.

Hi Jacque,
Yes, definitely abbrev name as in field myField. However, there's no way
for the compile process to know the contents of pitemname at runtime so I
don't think that's what is causing the error. As mentioned, adding the
word control before pitemname makes everything work but also causes
Hi Mark,
Yes, as just confirmed to Jacque.
I'm experiencing some sort of weird time warp with your emails to the list.

Hi Mark,
Jacque's suggestion of putting control before pitemname is working for
me although, as mentioned in a prior email, I'm not sure why, but I'll take
it.
You're right, using IDs would require me to keep a list of the ids related
to each abbrev name in a custom prop somewhere, not a big deal
