OK. Maybe the title is a litle confusing but there is the story.

I have a text field called Software Support and it is a checkbox. The allowed value is
"For this tool I offer some basic training and support to get you going and help you with the installation and configuration. The charge is £15 per hour."

So when it is ticked it shows this text in the node , but for example if I change something in the text field value all nodes that previously had this text (the box is ticked ) loose the setting and hide the text (set box to unticked). I reproduced this in 1.6 also..
If the field is select box makes no difference.

Please help

You want to use a number (interger) field instead, and use the following format for the allowed values :

0|whatver (won't be displayed)

Lets you abstract the displayed text from the actual value that gets stored
