I appologize up front in that I am not knowlegable about APIs.  My guess is this is doable and wondering if someone can help me make it happen. PayPal has an API called "CreateAndSendInvoiceRequestMessage" It allows you to send information to PayPay and then PayPal sends out an invoice to the customer and handles everything from ...

Ben, Do I understand you are trying to retrieve a value from a table by writing a script so you can display a field in a grid that is not found in the table you have open in the Grid? If so I am very interested in what you are trying to do as it would help me solve a number of problems that I am chasing around. I am not comfortable with script ...
