getFieldText (int, int, int)

Method. Gets the contents of a host field from the display. You specify the row and column of the field whose text you want returned and the number of characters to retrieve. To use this method, first use the findField method to find a field on the display with specific attributes. After the desired field is located, use the foundFieldStartRow, foundFieldEndRow, foundFieldStartColumn, foundFieldEndColumn, and foundFieldLength properties to determine the coordinates and length of the found field, and pass the appropriate values to the getFieldText method.
