Hi Friends,

Thanks for your quick feedback.

It's very simple that you can set the drop down value you have bonded as default value.

For example: Text: USA (Value: 271) then simply set 271 as default value property will resolved it.

Hi Bhadresh,

If you configure field to be Text, when you select Country selector as Form control and bellow that click on arrow Advanced, you can configure return value to be String with separated values. When you configure it like that, you can simply add usa as default value on the field.

Best regards, Dragoljub

I guess the easiest way would be to use jQuery: $("div.country-selector select").val("USA");

P.S. Don't forget to uncheck Add (select country) record on the first position in the control settings

@Bhadresh,

Try this:

Change from Country selector form control to Drop down list form control
Write Query like below

SELECT TOP 1 CountryThreeLetterCode,CountryName FROM CMS_Country Where CountryThreeLetterCode='USA' UNION SELECT CountryThreeLetterCode,CountryName FROM CMS_Country Where CountryThreeLetterCode<>'USA'
