    Dim node As DocumentEngine.TreeNode
    node = tree.SelectSingleNode(CurrentPage.NodeID, "de-de")
    node.GetValue("NAMEOFFIELD")

Hi Alexander,

I'm not sure about VB.net.. but I think you should be able to use something like:

CMSContext.CurrentDocument.GetValue("someFieldName", "your custom default value")

This is if the value is present in the current document. Where is your code executing? I asume you're using the ASPX model?

Might also want to have a look at some documentation:

https://docs.kentico.com/display/K9Tutorial/Creating+pages+using+ASPX+templates

Or have a look at the API samples: https://docs.kentico.com/display/API9/Pages

Greets,

David
