Pop Up Menu Issue

[adyf]

I have a value list set to use the value of the first field and to display the value of a second field. If I use a pop up menu, both values get entered into the field. If I use a drop down list it works as it should and only enters the first value. Am I missing something obvious?

Pop-up menu is supposed to insert the ID but display the second field after leaving the field. Drop-down list inserts the ID and displays the ID.

"If I use a pop up menu, both values get entered into the field."

Are you saying that it is physically inserting both values into the field for pop-up? Have you placed the field on a layout and set it as just edit (removing any value list) then clicking into the field? Does it actually insert both values (the ID and the name)?

In general, the two value lists behave differently. :^)

Thanks for your reply LaRetta, it's my misunderstanding then and it's working as it should. I was expecting it to work the same as a drop down list and only enter and display the ID.
