Adding custom field value on top of featured image

Hi Tom,

Yet another question ... thanks for your patience.

I created a new custom field (called Status) using the "Custom Fields" section on the create post page.
I was wondering what the easiest way to add this field value on top of the featured image on the single post page.

Can I create a page header and somehow(??) display the field there or do I need to add custom code?

I'd like it done for all posts automatically, if possible.

Thanks

Me again... I am better than I think! :-)

I got this working as well.
For others looking to do this...I did it using GPhook with the following php.
<h3><?php echo get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), 'Status', TRUE); ?></h3>

Along with some css than included negative margins to move the field onto the image.

Glad you got it working! Thanks for sharing the solution :)
