your going to have to create a separate search action which get the distinct manager id and name then your going to have to change the output to make the pulldown get its data from this new search action you did prior

this is custom, and can't be done in search builder

if it was in two separate table I could do that, but it's in the same
table...

you are going to have to make a JOIN between the 2 tables in
the Search builder

But maybe my brain is just frozen...

I have a User Table with different types of users.  Some of
the users
are bosses and some of the users are workers.

User Table

ID
Name
Type (boss or user)
BossID

The BossID contains the ID of the boss' record.

I have a typical taf built from the search builder.

In the RecordDetail when I'm displaying the Worker's information, I
want to
display his boss' name instead of his boss' ID.  How do I
do that.
If the
boss' name was in a different table, it would be a snap.
