Thank you.... primaryKey() is working for my needs. I didn't want to do a separate query... I have a couple of relations and I eventually wanted a string that was something like:
<td><wo:WOString value = "$current.client.clientCode"/>-<wo:WOString value = "$current.products.productCode"/>-<wo:WOString value = "$current.primaryKey" /></td> so I end up with a display of: MRK-M-1001 I just tested this and it is perfect...
