I am trying to modify a simple Media query, as per image, to include the Record ID field. The Fields list shows a Field named Automated Record ID, which I have added and which gives the code%OBJE.RIN%. However, when I run the query the ID column remains blank.
%OBJE.FILE% and %OBJE.KEYS% are working. I don't use Custom IDs, but I have created one to test, and %OBJE.REFN% also works.
So why doesn't %OBJE.RIN% - is the Media Record ID hidden somewhere else?

Re: Multimedia Query Query
That is a popular question that many users have. You need to use the =RecordId() function.
Tips:
See FHUG Knowledge Base Understanding Expressions or Understanding Functions that give examples for =RecordId()
Look in any Query that provides Record Id in its Result Set and see how it produces that in the Columns tab.

The Automated Record Id is something quite different.
