--Please Select--=--Sélectionner--;Yes=Oui;No=Non
With this approach the stored value will always be the English text. This is normally the preferred approach.
'''Approach 2: Use a different value as the stored value'''
This approach can be used to store values as a code. (Note: this approach is sometimes used even if the custom field is not being translated)
Values on main custom field (English):
-=--Please Select--;1=Yes;2=No
Values in French Translation:
-=--Sélectionner--;1=Oui;2=Non
This approach can also be used to store an abbreviated version of the options:
Values on main custom field (English):
High=Excellent (exceeds expectations);Medium=Okay (sufficient, but not great);Low=Poor (unacceptable)
The stored values in this case would be High, Medium or Low, but the combo box options displayed to the user would be the descriptive version after the "=".
