What version are you on? Also did you check each view of the form for the
Alias value?
Also as a test you can try the following to see if the filter fires ...
Say you are trying to compare against enum 4. Instead of the filter saying
('Field' = 4) try (('Field > 3) AND ('Field' < 5)).

Subject: Selection field enumId and value - where else can it be hidden?
**
Hi everyone,
I need some help. Originally on a form I had numerous values defined in
selection field ID 7 (status). Several years later we changed the value and
alias on 3 of those selections within that field. The actual 'numbering' did
not change. When you look on the form everything is fine and has been for
years.
So now to the dilemma .... I have a new filter in which the Run If contains a
qualification using one of those 3 'changed' values.
It doesn't matter if I use the value or the enumId, after I save it, and reopen
it, it gives me the OLD value. So really who cares, because I always thought
everything really worked off the enumId in the background.
BUT, the filter does not understand what it is supposed to do with it. No
error on filter save. The filter runs when it's supposed to but fails
qualification when that particular item does not match the run if.
I've checked the form definition, the field definition, the field_enum_values
data and it's all what it is supposed to be. Where is this old info hiding
out? The filter is newly created. These particular field selection values
have not been used in a run if before so never saw the issue.
Thanks for your help in advance!
Susan
