is it possible to pull content from an advanced custom field and display it in a custom column of a custom post type?

I have the following but no joy…

	function my_page_columns($columns)
	{
		$columns = array(
			'cb'	 	=> '<input type="checkbox" />',
			'title' 	=> 'Title',
			'nav_name' 	=> 'Nav Name',
			'author'	=>	'Author',
			'date'		=>	'Date',
		);
		return $columns;
	}
	
	function my_custom_columns($column)
	{
		global $post;
		
		if($column == 'nav_name')
			{
				echo get_field( 'project_navigation_name', $post_ID );
			}
		
	}
	
	
	add_filter("manage_edit-residential-projects_columns", "my_page_columns");
	add_action("manage_residential-projects_custom_column", "my_custom_columns");

I don’t believe get_field() is ready in that particular hook. You’ll need to use get_post_meta() to retrieve the value instead:

echo get_post_meta( $post_ID, 'project_navigation_name', true );
