    Dropwdown List with different display names and values

    When I create a dropdown list I'd like to have different names when choosing an option than their actual values. For example, when I click on the drop down list I get the following options:

    •Direct Federal Tax Law
    •Cantonal Tax Law

    When I then choose one it shouldn't insert the whole name in the field but rather only the abbreviation. So when I choose Cantonal Tax Law it should insert CTL into the field. How can I specify this? In advance many many thanks for your help.

     Hi, you can set "Value" and "Display Name" of dropdown list item separately. Please see attached image.

    Usually we put Value first, and it is automatically copied to Display Name; though you can modify them separately.  thanks,
