Use

This property is False by default, to prevent screen loading delays for OA subfiles containing a large numbers of hidden fields. However if you have a specific need to download hidden subfile columns then you can override this behavior by setting this property to True. The column data will still be hidden in the grid, but will be accessible at run-time via the Newlook object model.

TIP:

This property can only be set in Designer. It cannot be set dynamically at run-time.
