The Domino Designer Help says:
"If Notes/Domino cannot locate a field by name, it uses the string literal
instead."
So that's why you may be seeing your field name in the view.
I'm getting the same thing though...
Comment_1 is a rich text field that most definitely exists on my form.
If I use the following formula
@Abstract( [Abbrev]; 20; ""; "Comment_1")
the column is filled with "Comment_1".
If I use the full formula as proposed by Jake
@If(@IsAvailable(Comment_1); @Abstract( [Abbrev]; 1; ""; "Comment_1");"xx" );
the column is filled with "xx".
So that leads me to believe that the Comment_1 field cannot be found by the
view?
So I have the same question as Louis: what do I need to set up the view /
column formula correctly?
