I have an editable Namesfield, called From, which selects “Use Address dialog for choices”. The default value contains @Name([CN]; From) in order not to display the /OU=Illustration/O=Acme/etc…But it still shows the /OU=Illustration/O=Acme/etc…
When I do the same at a field Issuer with default value @Name([CN];@UserName) it shows the name perfectly without /OU=Illustration/O=Acme/etc…
What’s going wrong in the @Name([CN]; From) ?

The formula you have there is for the default value – that is, the value when a blank form is first opened. Since From is empty when the form is first opened, @Name([CN]; From) is also “”. When the user changes the value with the address dialog, it is no longer a default value, it’s an edited value. If you want to change a value after a user enters it, use the Input Translation event.
