    Its ok we all make mistakes like this! I would always say just type . and see what comes up for autofill this is a good way to see what's available in your record or table 😄

    Hi @PowerNovice  as this is a record you will need to set what it is displaying you can use .Value at the end of your code now:

    ThisItem.'Approval Choice'.Value
