Do List Values always need IDs Showing

When I select a customer from a value list I set it up so the customer's ID is shown in addition to a second, more meaningful, field. Is this the only way to do it, as the numbers in the drop down list make everything look untidy? What I really need is a way of just showing the meaningful names, but still allowing the ID field to be called upon. Is this possible?

Yes you can! But the requirement is that whats in the drop down list is unique. If it is can you pull the ID via a lookup.

I can't guarantee that will be the case. Is there any way of making it look neater, as the formating make's it look terrible. I'm just being a tart.
