Hi

Applying a condition only to select a particular person from a table and show the results in a dropdown list works fine. The dropdown list contains only the name of that particular person nothing else after applying this condition. Butt he dropdown list shows “select” in the first place and the person’s name in the second place. A user must then click the dropdown list and then select his or her name even if there is only a single value in it. I wonder whether there is any other workaround to avoid this extra unnecessary clicking in this case.

How can this particular person’ name be shown as a default value in this dropdown list instead of showing ‘select’ or

Is it possible to hide the default ‘select’ in dropdown list?
