I have a Dynamic Data website and while inserting a record into a table, the foreign key relationship shown as a drop-down uses the wrong field for it's select item text value.
How can I change the drop-down such that when working with this one table, it will use a different column as the value in the drop-down?
thank you

The solution is to add a partial class with some attributes from the System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations namespace & assembly. Notice the [DisplayColumn("Description")] below. That's what field is used to render as the text in a list.
