Hi Qedao,
Welcome to the forums!
If I understand you correctly, that's just the way Form Tools works. It was designed to always show the text for dropdowns (i.e. "January", "February", etc.), but actually store the value (1, 2 etc) in the database. That's how HTML & forms are designed: to pass along one value (the value) but to give each one a user-friendly label.
If you don't want to see the text, just edit the Option List and change the text for the dropdowns to have the same content as the values.
Let me know if I misunderstood -
Ben
