Cannot display Created By in label

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi,

I want to display the 'Created By' from an SP list item in a label. It doesn't let me use:

 

ThisItem.'Modified By'

In the Text property. It says: 'Expected Text value'. I understand why it's saying this as this column is a people type column, but apart from converting it to text somehow in SharePoint I am bereft of ideas on how to display this in a label.

 

Any Ideas?
