[GIS] Coded Value Domain is showing, but not Description

arcgis-desktopdomainsesri-geodatabase

I have a Domain that is working, but the issue is when I query on the feature. I need to be able to search on the Coded Description, not the Code Value.

The attribute table is giving me the Coded Description dropdowns, but when I try to query on any of these values, I need to use the code.

No subtypes on this feature either.

Posted this in comments, but got scolded for too long a discussion in comments. May get scolded for posting this in answers, but not sure where else to place it. Chat was suggested, but it's not my thread, so anyway...

Ok, point taken, but the value in the field is the string 'CKT69KV', not '69'. If it was 69, you'd see 69 - CKT69 in the Unique Values box. The Code is what is actually entered in the field. That particular record(s) has the Description entered. Either way, the link in my comment above has a workaround to do what you want.
