## In This Section

- [Javascript: ApplicationField.getFormat Method](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-server/reference/javascript/applicationfield/getformat-method/llms.txt): Gets the field's format.
- [Javascript: ApplicationField.getParameters Method](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-server/reference/javascript/applicationfield/getparameters-method/llms.txt): Gets the field' parameters. The order and format of the strings depend on the field's format. For example a Microsoft Word MergeField has the following format: MERGEFIELD FieldName [switches]. In this case the first string of the array is the FieldName and the following strings are possible switches. The string MERGEFIELD is the type name of the field and can be obtained through getTypeName. If a field has no parameters, this array is null.
- [Javascript: ApplicationField.getTypeName Method](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-server/reference/javascript/applicationfield/gettypename-method/llms.txt): Gets the field's type name. The type name of a Microsoft Word MergeField is MERGEFIELD, for example. If the type name of the field is changed, its parameters must also be changed.
- [Javascript: ApplicationField.setFormat Method](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-server/reference/javascript/applicationfield/setformat-method/llms.txt): Sets the field's format.
- [Javascript: ApplicationField.setParameters Method](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-server/reference/javascript/applicationfield/setparameters-method/llms.txt): Sets the field's parameters.
- [Javascript: ApplicationField.setTypeName Method](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-server/reference/javascript/applicationfield/settypename-method/llms.txt): Sets the field's type name. The type name of a Microsoft Word MergeField is MERGEFIELD, for example. If the type name of the field is changed, its parameters must also be changed.
