    BUG: Drop-downs passing wrong value to external page

    hi

    i have a dropdown within a form. The form is being submitted to another URL [salesforce dll]

    i have tried with a set of nodes as the datasource and also just adding options normally. BUT both ways results in the dropdown not passing the readable text values, but a GUID.

    the only way i have around this is to have a custom table as a datasource, BUT contour wants to sort these alphabetically, and i want them in another order.

    I suppose there are two issues - the value/GUID bug and also, can anyone give me a temporary workaround for a dropdown with non-alphabetical values, which will pass the correct values to an external page.

     

     

    thank you in advance

    I'm also having this problem, but in the workflow engine.

    If I add options to a dropdown field, the value that I recieve in the workflow is the GUID, rather than the text of what the user has selected.

    Did you find a way to go from the GUID -> readable text?

     

    Thanks
