This is currently not a feature supported by Views.

I am very interested in this.

I am looking to display one of 3 CCK fields in a content type depending on a variable entered by a user.
(basic multi-currency feature based on user selection of currency type in profile)

Any hints or directions on how to do this would be greatly appreciated?

Has this situation changed? Or is there another way to accomplish this? I have a view that has a nodereferrer field that can return a number of values and I want to sort those nodereferrer values. I have not been able to find a way to sort these in the queries generated by the Views module, so I am thinking that if I can get Views to use my customer query, then I could solve this very easy.

Thanks in advance for any guidance.
