State Abbreviations and Not Changing Database

I'd like to have my drop down menus use the abb column in the state/province table instead of the id column.  Is there a way to do that without changing the id column?

Re: State Abbreviations and Not Changing Database

The best way to do this is to login to admin and access System | Database | Raw Database Admin then choose to update the core_tabledefs table.  Locate the row where the tid = core_stateprov and choose to update row.  Change the value for the tdisplay column to 'abb'.

Have fun and make a mess.
