+ | ==== How to Store a Different Value than Displayed ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | If you want to display a “friendly” value as the default value, but store a different value (like a code), you can do this by using a code followed by two underscores (`__`) and then the value, for example: | ||
+ | |||
+ | ``` | ||
+ | A__Excellent | ||
+ | B__Good | ||
+ | C__OK | ||
+ | F__Fail | ||
+ | ``` | ||
+ | |||
+ | will display a list with Excellent, Good, OK, and Fail, but return a value of A, B, C or F as appropriate. | ||
