if i wanna change the text above the field (which was put there in a addfield from a suitelet), which function on the fields do i call (in a client script)??
thanks!

Not sure that you can in client without DOM manipulation.  What's the use case?

this field was added in by a suitelet, and i wanna change the text above in a CS

can you alter the suitelet that adds the field?

Otherwise the only way I can think of is to wrap the suitelet field in a client script field and hide the suitelet field. Which is.... messy

You can use the `N/currentRecord` module in a client script and do something like this in `pageInit`
```        var rec = currentRecord.get();
        var field = rec.getField({ fieldId: 'custpage_test' });
        field.label = 'New Label';```

```can you alter the suitelet that adds the field?```
yes, but i need to go back and forth between options changing the label on the field each time

setLabel should work but says : SSS_NOT_YET_SUPPORTED

Just tested this with a suitelet/client script added via `form.clientScriptModulePath`

test.suitelet.and.client.js

test.client.js

Here's a simple example.  You can see the label change from the client script after the page loads.
