is it possible to add more data on the POPUP LIST OF VALues?

at the moment list comes up showing ID... is it possible to inlcude CUSTOMER NAME, and other fields enxt to the ID? but not affecting the link when it is clicked the textbox is only filled with the ID?

As LoV requires exactly 2 values: display & return, it is possible to show several values into DISPLAY using a concatenation operator. For example:
select ename ||', '|| job ||', '|| sal display_value,
       empno return_value
from emp

How do you mean, "where do you edit the code"? Is it not obvious from my example?

select customer_id ||', '|| customer_name ||', '|| customer_job display_value,
       customer_id return_value
from customer
order by customer_id

Perhaps you should get familiar with basic SQL. Consult SQL Reference book.

That's how it works. You don't see RETURN value, but everything you put into a DISPLAY value is, well, displayed.

Feel free to ask any question; hopefully, someone will assist.

Note that Apex contains rather good online help. Almost all properties, when clicked on their name, have a short description. There are also syntax examples provided when necessary. Don't be afraid to click on these links and read what's being said.
