i need to know the native db type, specifically when it is ntext or xml and of course dotnettype is string..Thanks

Moved to templatestudio/templates forum.

DBTableField dbField = (DBTableField)currentEntity.Fields[i].MappedField;
//currentEntity is of EntityDefinition

if (dbField.TypeDefinition.DBTypeAsString != "money")
 throw new NeedMoreMoneyException("Gimme Gimme");

and the dotnettype is from

currentField.DotNetType.Name;
//currentField is of type EntityFieldDefinition

Groovy thanks
