Custom field user picker

items
custom-fields

How do I get a custom field that is a user picker list to have a Default Value of "Nobody"? Right now it defaults to the first user on the list.

Are you looking to force the user to select a value? Or are you looking for the field to default to another user?

I want the field to be left empty if possible. Right now I have created a fake user that is "A Internal User" so that will display as the default value on screen when they create the item.

That is not possible with the drop down custom field, use the list one.

You are saying to not use the "User Picker" custom field type? And suggesting that I use the listbox custom field and use a SQL driven lookup?

Yes, otherwise you will have to use your workaround.
