Pick/Match and Current Selections

Hello-

I'm using pick/match for a few fields.  My object shows the new value.  However, when these fields are selected, the current selections box shows the original value.  Is there a way I can fix this?  I'm not opposed to using a text box and creating a new current selections box.  Can this be done? Thanks in advance!

I think my original question got sidetracked. I used a pick/match statement to create a new values for a particular field.  When I click on these new values my current selection box shows the old values not the new values. In the pictures below is an example. I would like the current selections to read Fields = Affiliate and Values = WFHE.  Is there a fix for this outside of the load script?

Tina,

The current selections object always shows (and only) the actual field names and values. If you want to show something different you can create two fields in the script, as JasleenP_SR suggested above, one with the actual value, the other one with the value you want to show, and use the latter for selections. Actually is quite usual, for example, Item No and Item Description. (Use the numeric code in set analysis and expressions, but show the user the more familiar Description).

Hope that helps.
