Function Description
This function will return the field expression associated with a supplied object, if any exists.
The function will yield results identical to the ActiveX fieldcode method, however, where the vla-fieldcode function is only compatible with Text & MText objects, this function will return the field expression associated with Text, MText, Attributes, Multileaders & every types of Dimension object.
This function is also compatible with nested field expressions (nested to any depth), including object property field expressions and formula fields.
