(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 28

I would actually want to make a pull down list
the details inside this pull down list is the "Created by" details in sharepoint list,

so the user can select and filter the items which created by the specific person

 

Choices(Sharepointlist1.'Created By')

 

however, the value show out is some unreadable wording.

did I miss any more details in order to show up the correct display name?
