Typically, you can use @fieldname@ but there is a special case where you must use @fieldname.combovalue@ when the values in the combo box are 1=Yes;2=No;3=Maybe.Using @fieldname@ will return the Yes, No, or Maybe. But using @fieldname.combovalue@ will return 1, 2, or 3. Using @''fieldname''.value@ will display the full HTML of the field; in other words, a dropdown box containing the values of the field will be displayed.<!-- ssRetiredOption ssRetiredOptions --> ==Notes=={{StoredValue}} * The first value listed will be the default value when a new record is created.* This technique is important when translating to other languages. The '''StoreValue''' must be the same in all languages.
