I need to capture the name of the Type and Subtype of the vehicle and write to DB. I want to use&amp;nbsp; this DD and capture the name as mentioned in Choice labels.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Lets say: Choice Labels are &amp;quot;BUS&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;TRAINS&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;CAR&amp;quot; and Choice values are 1,2,3 as ids....But in my DD I am saving Idss. So how I can save for a form on selection BUS or Train or Car?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Have questions on Drop Downs</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/82929?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 24 Jun 2021 13:20:30 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:106a40a0-4b35-4ec3-bb06-d92b873ab5d4</guid><dc:creator>Mike Schmitt</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Can you clarify what you&amp;#39;re still wanting to do with this?&amp;nbsp; The code you posted looks like it would work (though I&amp;#39;d suggest moving the query for subType into the local variable based on what the current type selection is).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
