Process data field values & K2DropDownList

Hi,

I am using a SmartForm with a K2DropDownList that gets populated on Page-Load with values from my database. The value field of the K2DropDownList is my database record's ID field; the text field of the K2DropDownList is the description. I then fill consequential dropdownlists with values based on the selected ID of my first dropdownlist. The K2DropDownList is linked to a Process data field, but on submit, the value which is my database record's ID is passed and NOT the text field. I need to pass the text field of the selected K2DropDownList to my process. How do I do this?

Thanks,
Filia
