- field (Int32)
- Specifies the field of the Record to get or set.


Record fields are indexed starting with 1. Field 0 is a special format field.
When getting a field, the type of the object returned depends on the type of the Record field. The object will be one of: Int16, Int32, String, Stream, or null. If the Record was returned from a View, the type will match that of the field from the View query. Otherwise, the type will match the type of the last value set for the field.
When setting a field, the type of the object provided will be converted to match the View query that returned the Record, or if Record was not returned from a View then the type of the object provided will determine the type of the Record field. The object should be one of: Int16, Int32, String, Stream, or null.
The type-specific getters and setters are slightly more efficient than this property, since they don't have to do the extra work to infer the value's type every time.
