You can create a parent list and use ListLabel with any variable to display your desired text.
Example.
If you had a parent list called FruitList as follows ...
1-Apple
2-Orange
3-Banana
4-Watermelon
5-Strawberry
If your hidden variable is called HdType and it equals 4,
Use [%ListLabel(FruitList,HdType)%]
This will display “Watermelon” in this example.
Just replace the list name and hidden variable in the example.
