Did you already use the the_field() command to switch fields inside of a while loop? Looking at the WP_Alchemy website, it seems that they want you to set it up so that you pull the data once (do the while $project->have_fields() one time) then switch between data fields by either the_field or the_value calls.

If that isn't working, what I would suggest is that we take a look at your data model and see if it's not satisfying what you're asking it. Sometimes the issue with my stuff is that I design the data for one purpose, then find that I query for something totally different and have to go back and re-design the database. It's painful, but pays off in the long run.
