[Vtigercrm-developers] API to get the UIType 4 field name of a module?

[Alan Lord]

There is no way to determine this information using vtws_describe either...

For example if I describe the Quotes module, all I know about the 
quote_no field is this:

> vtws_describe for Quotes
> Array

>     [name] => Quotes
>     [createable] => 1
>     [updateable] => 1
>     [deleteable] => 1
>     [retrieveable] => 1
>     [fields] => Array
