Still getting SYS_ID instead of Display value in Reference

[Richard P]

Hi, I have created a new table. only 2 fields for a reference field. its not extended from any other table.

however when clicking on the lookup magnifier, it shows the sys_id values

I went into <system Definition> <Dictionary> and on the table I set the friendly string name to true

but still I only get the sys_id on lookup?

what else do I need to do?

Cry clearing cache once

Cache.do and your browser cache too.

Hiya

Do you have one of the fields set for display is True on the table? As that's which   field will be shown in the list views?
