getValue() is returning label of a choice instead of Value

[Yesh]

Hi all,

I want to get the value of a choice of a field. 

Field Label: Month

Field ID: month

Field Type: Choice

var month = g_form.getValue('month');
g_form.addInfoMessage(month);

By this I am getting the 'January', but I need the value of January i.e., '1'.

How to achieve this?

Thanks,

Yesh

Hi,

I have checked with a choice field in another table, it is returning value of the selected choice only. But in the table I am trying retrieve the month value of the selected choice is returning the Lable.

Is there anything I have to change in table dictionary?

Regards,

Issue is not with getValue() but with your field setting somehow. getValue always returns the value of a choice field and not label.

 Can you add a screenshot of the dictionary form the native ui?
