How to display related field value from a grid edit dropdown selector (rather than record id#)

I have a grid edit table report that requires the user to select the "Related Content Allocation" before editing the rest of the columns/fields. However, the dropdown is displaying the related field's record ID, which isn't very user-friendly. Is there a way to display other related field values in this dropdown rather than the record ID# easily?

Have you set a Proxy field for that related Content Allocation field and included it on the grid edit report?  Edit the field properties and set a proxy field from one of the lookup fields.
