Dynamic Dropdown Values (SQL Query)

$

Here's the dilemma...

 

I want to use a SQL query to populate a set of dropdown menu items, but everything I read discusses a select statement with a single column being returned.

Whats wrong with this is if I do the same thing in a Blueprint I get to provide a descriptive value presented in the dropdown and the actual value, which is the functionality I am looking to use in my vRO workflow.

Anyone know if this is possible? and if so how would I go about it?

I understand that I create an action which performs the query and then push the resultant values in the attribute, but how would I break this out and concat it to provide the values for the presentation and actual value.

 

For example:

 

DataCenter Code:

Presentation:                           Value:

New Jersey, Newark                DC01

New Jersey, Trenton                DC02

New York, White Planes           DC03


Being that the end user isn't going to know the data center designations I want to present the descriptive name to them so they can clearly understand, while what is actually used if what is required (Transparently!)
