I have solved this issue by inserting an extra dropdown (normally hidden), apply rules to translate it and toggle between the two drop downs at Email submission.https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/122272.aspxMon, 20 Jan 2020 15:51:18 GMT033a2e2d-04e2-4a9d-be01-a4634161eefd:122272Hilary Stoupa0https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/122272.aspxhttps://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=41&PostID=122272Because you've set the field to an invalid option for the choices available. You really need to use an additional field for this - leave the field bound to the dropdown alone and set your new field on submit - promote the new field. Edited to add: I forgot you are concerned about emailing - if you intend to reset the State 1 value, you need to send the email displaying something other than the dropdown, since the value you are setting it to is not a valid option.https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/122266.aspxThu, 16 Jan 2020 18:57:04 GMT033a2e2d-04e2-4a9d-be01-a4634161eefd:122266photonacl0https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/122266.aspxhttps://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=41&PostID=122266Thank you Hilary, I tried the "conditional formatting" approach. Basically, I added one more rule before the submitting rule for the submit button. And added the following steps like: // Condition: State1 = "Old Dominion" // Run Type: Action // Run these actions: Set State1 = "Virginia". After the form is submitted, the form response has nothing to show for the dropdown field?https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/122263.aspxThu, 16 Jan 2020 17:18:18 GMT033a2e2d-04e2-4a9d-be01-a4634161eefd:122263Hilary Stoupa0https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/122263.aspxhttps://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=41&PostID=122263I'd either use a specific email view or a little conditional formatting for this. If this is a browser form, using a specific email view is simplest. Just create a new view, and use a calculated value for the dropdown field (which will contain the value). When the form submits, switch to the email view first, then submit. If this is not a browser form, this won't work, and we'll need to take a conditional formatting approach. :)https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/122262.aspxThu, 16 Jan 2020 15:35:39 GMT033a2e2d-04e2-4a9d-be01-a4634161eefd:122262photonacl0https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/122262.aspxhttps://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=41&PostID=122262Let's say I have a dropdown box with the following options - Display Name: The Golden State | Value: California | Display Name: Old Dominion | Value: Virginia | Display Name: The Lone Star State | Value: Texas | When users fill out the form, they see and pick the display name, after they submit the form the submission is sent via Email. How do I go about making the response to show the Values in the email instead of their Display names?
