  • 1.  Drop down Returns Record ID Instead of Selected Value

    Posted 09-08-2019 11:45
    Good morning,

    I'm using a conditional drop down in a grid edit report. The drop down shows the size options, but once a value is selected, it returns the record ID to the grid edit, rather than the value itself. So for example I want to select the 4.2 size for the area "End Caps". When I click on the drop down, I see the options for 4.2 and 7.4, but when I select 4.2, the record ID of "2" shows on the grid edit, rather than the value of 4.2. Is there a way I can show the value rather than the record ID?

    Table used for dropdown of sizes based on area
    The selection shows the sizes

    Once the size is selected, the record ID is returned, rather than the size

    Hoping this is an option and looking forward to hearing from you!

    You can set the proxy field for ESL Size to be the field ESL Type and just use that field on the report. Is that what you were trying to accomplish? The user selects the size on the drop down and the size shows after they move out of that field?
