[TYPO3] Retrieving RECORD bodycontent via TS?

[Tyler Kraft]

It doesn't work because the syntax is completely wrong!

Go look at TSref to see what values should be used for the RECORDS 
cObject. You'll find that its for getting a specific record forma table 
- not for getting part of a record. You need to use the Content cObject 
and then define your own redering for it.
