Sometimes you have only the type of an object, which you want to create. Meaning you want to create an object dynamically. This is how you would achieve your goal:
In my case I wanted to create a SPField from its typename. 1: string typename = “Microsoft.SharePoint.SPFieldText, Microsoft.SharePoint, “+
<span class=lnum> 2: </span> <span class=str>"Version=11.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c"</span>; 3: Type t = Type.GetType(typename, true, true); <span class=lnum> 4: </span><span class=kwrd>object</span> newObject = System.
If you want the ID or the value form a LookupField, you can get it easily with this code snippet:SPListItem item = getitsomewhare… SPFieldLookupValue lf = (SPFieldLookupValue) item.ParentList.Fields.GetField(_FieldName).GetFieldValue( item.GetFormattedValue(_FieldName));
if you got the field, fetch its properties viaif (lf == null) { int itemID = lf.LookupId; string itemValue = lf.LookupValue; } Have fun ;-)
If you have a list which contains a SPFieldUser field (with multiple selection), you can add users too it with the following code:
using (SPSite site = new
SPSite(“http://site”))
{
using (SPWeb web = site.AllWebs[“Web”])
<span style="font-family:Consolas;font-size:10pt"> {<br /> </span> <span style="font-family:Consolas;font-size:10pt"> <span style="color:#2b91af">SPList</span> list = web.Lists[<span style="color:#a31515">"List"</span>];<br /> </span> <span style="font-family:Consolas;font-size:10pt"> <span style="color:#2b91af">SPListItem</span> item = list.Items[0];<br /> </span> <span style="font-family:Consolas;font-size:10pt"> <span style="color:#2b91af">SPFieldUserValueCollection</span> values = (<span style="color:#2b91af">SPFieldUserValueCollection</span>)item[<span style="color:#a31515">"Users"</span>];<br /> </span> <span style="font-family:Consolas;font-size:10pt"> <span style="color:#2b91af">SPUserCollection</span> users = web.
