Question

On a content type in a SharePoint (MOSS 2007) site I want to show an icon if the property is a certain value.

The column is a Yes/ No so the selected value should be fairly easy to determine.

So how can I, in the ASPX, show read the value? I know I need to modify the web.config to allow for in-page C#, but I’m just not sure how to find the property. I think I need to use SPContext.Current, but I’m not sure what inside that.

Answer 1

Well I’ve found out how to do this:

var item = SPContext.Current.File.Item; //returns the SPListItem for the current context var myField = item['SomeFieldName']; //this will throw a NullReferenceException if there is no data for the field yet though Response.Write(myField.ToString());
