(Works with MV 3.14 and MV4.04a)

In most common case, you have 7%! If there are some items with 16%, you
have an entry "MWSTKZ2" in the field "dummy". This works with the whole
p rice(netto + VAT = "Bruttopreis").

If the viewed page is "flypage.html", you can use

[item-field description2]

or what is the problem?
