    Separate text/value for a dropdown list item field?

    Is there a way to specify a list item value that differs from it's text to the user? Or am I missing something?

    When I click on edit items of a dropdown, it only seems to let me add single values to it, not text/value pairs.

    Thanks for any input.

    Hi Mike,

    Well the only way to do that would be to create a custom prevalue source since the default one will only allow you to set the text and

    Hi Tim. Thanks for the response, you saved me some time on researching. Hopefully the Contour team will consider adding text/value pairs for dropdowns natively in the future. This is a very common functionality in almost all form builders I've seen within a variety of different CMS's.

    Thanks again,
    Mike
