You need a list of strings to display, but can reference the selected
value in one of three ways: StringValue (what is displayed), KeyValue
(if the choices are linked to keys), or PositionValue (the position of
the selected item in the list of choices).
For something like this I would create two corresponding lists: your
objects in one, and a string representation of them in the other. Use
the string list for the control, and get the PostiionValue of the
selection. This will be the index of the corresponding object in the
first list.
