I added a new user defined field to the order entry screen and want to make it a combo box but want to use a name value pair. Meaning the name the user see's is "Value 1" in the combo box selections but when it is saved to the database I was the value of "1" saved.

I look at other Macola defined combo boxes and they use the following syntax in the values box of the user defined fields:

1=Value 1
2=Value 2

When I do this I get a "Invalid '=' character within field value" error.

Any ideas on how to use a name/value pair in a combo box?

Thanks!
