Hi Ashis:

You can use only one flag with 3 diferentes values 1,2 y 3.

Table1:

...

1 as Flag

....

Table2:

2 as Flag

...

Table3:

3 as Flag

Hi Juan,

Sorry for not being clear from my above statement.

Actually I am doing the same as you said.

Now in the current selection box I see Flag:1 or Flag:2 or Flag:3 as selection , how can I change the display of this .

I want to show  Flag:xxx or Flag:yyy or Flag:zzz

Thank you Sudhir,

I want to keep it numeric instead of string value .

Is there any way I can change it in the display of current selection.

You can use codes not numbers:

Table1:

...

'xxx' as Flag

....

Table2:

'yyy' as Flag

...

Table3:

'zzz' as Flag

...
