Given this table...

translator_format = lambda row: row.custom_name if (row.custom_name and 
row.custom_name.strip()) else "%s -> %s" %(
            db.notation(row.source_notation_id).notation_name,
            db.notation(row.target_notation_id).notation_name)

db.define_table("translator",
    # A name for the translator is not required. If the custom name is 
empty, the name will be computed 
    # from the notation names
    Field("custom_name", "string", length=512,
          ),

    Field.Virtual("translator_name",
                  translator_format),
    # ...
    format = translator_format,
)

... I'm trying to define this form:

form = SQLFORM.factory(
    Field("translator_id", "reference translator",
          label=T("Translator"),
          requires = IS_IN_DB(
              db(translator_query), db.translator.id,
              translator_chooser_representation,
              zero=None, sort=False),
    ),
    # ...
    )

Now, within the format function, i cannot access the virtual field of the 
row:

def translator_chooser_representation(r):
    return "%s" %(r.translator_name)   ## This I'd like to use but it 
doesn't work

    return db.translator._format(r)  ## This works, but I'd like the actual 
result to be different from the format

Am I doing something wrong?
