You can concat both fields in select query that you pass to get_dropdown_value.

Dear Abu Ghufran,

Thank you for your reply. The dropdown is work with two columns.

I use the following:

$str = $grid->get_dropdown_values("select distinct applicant_id as k, concat(applicant_id , ' – ', applicant_name) as v from applicants");

When add a new record i got "undefined" as a default value in the dropdown.

Is there anything wrong?

Best regards.
