Hi,
​
I looked up informations in FAQ and forum about the field Selected Value in drop down field but I found nothing solving (one of) my problem(s).
​
If I set a selected value (with php or custom form), I never get the right key/value expected.
​
To make tests, I tried with a simple dropdown. Originally, options are fed by a read_data key/value but I did it manually for this example below.
​

​
​
By this way, I thought the dropdown would display le label "21", 22 being the key, or would display 22 like I wrote in the field (and the value key 23).
​
But this is the result :
​

​
I've changed the multi select dropdown option to YES and I don't understand the result :
​

​
I only put one value in the selected value list and there is three selected.
​
​
Any idea of what I did wrong ?
​
Thanks

Hi,
​
I am still stuck on this.
​
No one see the mistake i've done ?

Well, still stuck ...
​
I did quite a lot of tests without results and hardly I think I've found a way to identify the problem but I don't know how to solve it.
​
I did this options List and selected in a dropdown :
​

​
the result is :
​

​
I identify two problems :

1. dropdown doesn't use my argument "07" as is, means like a string, It probably changes it before the array search in a numeric value : 7. This is why it doesn't offer me the options 10=07.
2. I can't specify where to look, key or field, and it seems to do both, so I obtain the image result above.

​
How can I solve this problem ?
