You have named the GROUP "MyField" and then are trying to print the
field using the group's name. What is the name of the field?
Calling the group "MyField" will only lead to confusion. Call it
"MyFieldGroup" or something similar so that it is obvious that it is
a group & not a field. Then rename your field to "MyField" and use
the script line:
revPrintField the long name of field "myField"
