Question

I'm looking to search within each list for a column. The problem is that this column is referred to differently in CAML. Look at this for a detailed explanation: Finding the internal name and display name for a list column

I'd like to know if there is a way to search the column name in CAML. I've been reading over here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms467521.aspx and it seems as if you can only use or to search the values within the column itself. Is there a way of doing this using CAML?

Was it helpful?

Solution

I'm not sure that you can do it with CAML, but you should be able to use the Lists web service to get a list of all columns for a list. What's the application here?
