Hi,

you could deselect the Values and/or Status column in the current selection box properties:

Ok. But if I want Code and customer to be displayed as it is and hide amount column from appearing in current selection box?

TAG the field as $hidden in your load script.

TAG field your_field_name with $hidden ;

TAG field amount with $hidden ;

I perhaps you mean hiding a Field? Hidden fields will not appear in the Current Selections box. You make a field hidden either by using the SET HidePrefix or HideSuffix variable, or script:

TAG FIELD myfield with '$hidden';

Try the attached example. Note that selections made in Fields "_Key1" and "X" do not show up in the Current Selections box. See the script to understand how it's done.
