Hi I'm using a lookup on a text field as a dropdown. I'd like to order it in a non standard way though, I have four values I want at the top of the list then the rest alphabetically - I tried putting a space at the front but it gets stripped when saving.
Any ideas?

You could prefix the values with an ASCII char such as an asterisk (*) or use https://formidableforms.com/knowledgebase/frm_setup_new_fields_vars/ and/or https://formidableforms.com/knowledgebase/frm_setup_edit_fields_vars/ to manipulate the order of the options
