Are you using select in field trigger here? Assuming the field name is Lib_Testeur where you are making selection, try this

FieldName

Lib_Testeur


Search String

If($(vNameChart)='Test Configuration', 'titi', 'toto')

no Is not in the select in filed but in the dimension..

I tried this: =if ($(vNameChart)='MMS Reference Test Configuration',Lib_Site='Spore')

but I get an error : "Garbage after expression: 'MMS...'

May be try this

=If($(vNameChart)='MMS Reference Test Configuration',

If(Lib_Site='Spore', Lib_Site))

You want to select in a list box or do you want to have it as a calculated dimension? These are two different things... List box selection can be done using select in field action... where as calculated dimension uses if conditions.... but I am not clear as to how a calculated dimension needs to select in a list box? They are two different objects
