I ran a query of the entire table and the field numbers are listed sequentially in a Field ID column. How can I go into the table to see data is in a particular field.
For instance, field 20 is the Employee Status, but how do I go into Lawson and actually SEE the status IN field 20? I'm not sure where to look because I'm new to Lawson.:confused:

Hi Bev,
The field definitions are stored in data is stored in the PADICT table; the data that is stored in HRHISTORY is stored in either A_VALUE (for alpha fields), D_VALUE (for date fields), or N_VALUE (for numeric fields). So, for field id 20, look at the A_VALUE, since Employee Status is alpha.

You can use the Excel addins to dump out the contents of the PADICT table; also I have a simple Crystal Report for sale in the store that reports the definitions:
