# Field Object

You can use the Field object to access the properties of an entity field.

For example, to display a message box when a user does not have permission to change a value in the Status field, you can use the following code:

    Msgbox "You do not have permission to change "_
    & "Bug_Fields.Field("BG_STATUS").FieldLabel field."

The Field object has the following properties:

Property | R/W | Type | Description
--- | --- | --- | ---
FieldLabel | R | String | The displayed label of the field.
FieldName | R | String | The logical name of the field.
IsModified | R | Boolean | Specifies whether the value was modified.
IsMultiValue | R | Boolean | Specifies whether the field can contain multiple values from a lookup list.
IsNull | R | Boolean | Specifies whether the field value is absent.
IsReadOnly | R/W | Boolean | Specifies whether the field is read-only.
IsRequired | R/W | Boolean | Specifies whether a field value is required. This enables you to override field customization information. To modify the IsRequired property of a field, the IsVisible property must be `True`. Changes to IsRequired are ignored if the field is not visible. Users must always enter a value for a field that is set as required by the workflow. This applies whether they are modifying an existing record or adding a new record, and even if the field is already empty.
IsVisible | R/W | Boolean | Specifies whether the field is displayed.
List | R/W | List | Sets or retrieves the field list attached to a field of type lookup list.
PageNo | R/W | Integer | Sets or retrieves the page (tab) on which the field is displayed in the New Defect and Defect Details dialog boxes.
Value | R/W | Variant | Sets or retrieves the value of the field.
ViewOrder | R/W | Integer | Sets or retrieves the order in which the fields are displayed in the New Defect and Defect Details dialog boxes. You must set the value for every field in the dialog box.
