This seems like it should be an easy fix but I'm not sure how to wrap my head around it. Is there a way to update the Customer Prefix query element so that it will disply the description of the Prefix and not the ID number? Customer Prefix is pulled from one of those special tables and I'm not sure if I can modify the element. And I'm not sure how diffcult a new element would be to create.
Thanks in advance for suggestions.

Thank you. I knew it should be easy. I will try this and see what happens.

Hi Elizabeth
Rather than edit the existing entry it’s best if you add a new row to TR_QUERY_ELEMENT for the prefix ‘description’.
The following setup should get you what you’re after:
Description: Customer Prefix Description (or any other name that suits you)
Category: Customer
Data Select: !.prefix_desc
Data From: (select p.description as prefix_desc, c.customer_no from t_customer c join TR_PREFIX p on p.id = c.prefix)
Hope that helps
Regards
Peter
