Can we pass a variable of the record type in a record.load? (record.Type.myVar)

dont understand the question, record.Type.SOMETHING is a string enumeration already there

I need to load the item record in a loop. I am unsure of the record type of each item.

Sounds like a bad design to load a record in a loop. Would probably make more sense to put all the id's in an array, and create a search for all the properties you want from them. If you do need to load them, typically there is a column that has the item type on most sublists taht use item natively

I do not disagree with you there.

I wouldn’t use the dot notation with a variable but set the variable to the whole record type name.

Probably a good idea, Danny, but I just went back and rewrote it all a bit more properly so that I did not need to deal with the item types at all. Thanks all.

Glad you were able to get it working. How did you rework it to not use the record type on the load operation? I thought it was required.

Instead of dealing with looping of items to grab item data, I threw the info needed into a unstored custcol and dealt with it that way.

Obviously it is a bad design to load record in a loop. But I still want to answer @mightyd3 questions. If you're not sure which item type you get then you should maps all possible items type in object like this var RECORD_TYPE = {                 "serviceitem":record.Type.SERVICE_ITEM,                 "inventoryitem":record.Type.INVENTORY_ITEM,                 "noninventoryitem":record.Type.NON_INVENTORY_ITEM             } And access these types from this object in loop like record.load({type: RECORD_TYPE[itemRecType],id:itemId})
