Quick help required

Hi,

I have a dropdown which sets the selected value to a textfield ......
works fine.

If I am setting the values of the dropdown within the codepage, how
could I set 2 columns in the dropdown (if possible), but have 1 column
hidden in the dropdown, but then have the hidden column value dropped
into the textfield

i.e. Dropdown code

<-- £50 (column 1) Brickwork Repair (Column 2) -->

Column 2 is displayed, Column 1 is hidden
On dropdown, Column 1 Value is dropped into the textfield

How is this done, as I only know how to diplay 1 column and drop 1
value

Appreciate your help
