title: Sharepoint Web Services Item Data (access to "Created By" Column)
body: <p>I am currently working on an application that displays the data of a Sharepoint calendar via Sharepoint Webservices. Therefore, I am using the List Service of the calendar.</p>
  
  <p>I manage to get all important information except user data, such as <em>Created By</em> or <em>Modified By</em>. The XML which is returned contains the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;rs:data ItemCount="1" xmlns:rs="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:rowset"&gt;
     &lt;z:row ows_fRecurrence="0" ows_Attachments="0" ows_WorkspaceLink="0" ows_LinkTitle="Element1" ows_Location="ABG" ows_EventDate="2010-10-08 15:00:00" ows_EndDate="2010-10-08 15:00:00" ows_fAllDayEvent="0" ows__ModerationStatus="0" ows__Level="1" ows_Title="Element1" ows_ID="1" ows_owshiddenversion="2" ows_UniqueId="1;#{CF790A42-0B9F-44FE-BAC5-5FE959C9BF1B}" ows_FSObjType="1;#0" ows_Created_x0020_Date="1;#2010-10-22 14:16:58" ows_Created="2010-10-22 14:16:58" ows_FileLeafRef="1;#1_.000" ows_FileRef="1;#*******/Test/Lists/TestCalendar/1_.000" ows_MetaInfo="1;#" xmlns:z="#RowsetSchema" /&gt;
  &lt;/rs:data&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I cannot see any indication where the information of the Author of that element is saved. </p>
  
  <p>I tried to specify the ViewFields for my Query which didn't change anything. Also, I tried to add a custom column in the calendar that should contain Author information, but it didn't work at all.</p>
  
  <p>This is my code to get the items:</p>
  
  <pre><code>****.Lists listService = new ****.Lists();
  listService.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
  XmlNode activeItemData = listService.GetListItems(listGUID, activeItemViewGUID, null, null , "", null, "");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It would be amazing if someone could give me an indication what I could try to get the information I need.
  Thanks in advance!</p>
