Hi,

I have a SharePoint List in site. It has a custom list. I added a new field with type 'Multiple lines of Text' and in Additional Column Setting section selected 'Append Changes to the existing text'-->yes. When we modified list item we got the changes in that field only. How can we read the all the changes using .Net client object model.

Same problem we achieved in server object model like this way
public static string GetVersionedMultiLineTextAsPlainText(SPListItem item, string key)
{

StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();

foreach (SPListItemVersion version in item.Web.Lists[item.ParentList.ID].Items[item.UniqueId].Versions)
{

SPFieldMultiLineText field = version.Fields[key] as SPFieldMultiLineText;

if (field != null)
{

string comment = field.GetFieldValueAsText(version[key]);

if (comment != null && comment.Trim() != string.Empty)
{

sb.Append("");

sb.Append(version.CreatedBy.User.Name).Append(" (");

sb.Append(version.Created.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm tt"));

sb.Append(") ");

sb.Append(comment + ';');

}

}

}

return sb.ToString();

}

same code need to write in .Net client object model.

Can any one help this code.

You can use below function:

JavaScript

function displayCostSheetComments() {
           $().SPServices({
               operation: "GetVersionCollection",
               async: true,
               strlistID: "yourListName",
               strlistItemID: "yourListItemId",
               strFieldName: "yourFieldnName",
               completefunc: function (xData, Status) {
                   $(xData.responseText).find("Version").each(function (i) {

                       var comments = {
                           User: $(this).attr("Editor").split(",#,#")[1],
                           Comments: $(this).attr("Comments"),
                           CommentDate: $(this).attr("Modified")
                       };
                       console.log("Name: " + $(this).attr("Editor") + $(this).attr("Comments") + " Modified: " + $(this).attr("Modified"));



                   });
               }
           });
       }
