Need help with Interface tools

This is my first time using the interface tools.  I can't seem to figure out where I have gone wrong with this.  I have a drop down of twelve months.  I want the user to select a month and then have the "IsSelectedMonth" column be updated based on that information.  I get a parse error anytime I run it as an app.  It's acting like the month being selected is an unknown variable.  So, I clearly have something misconfigured somewhere.  Any thoughts?

Couple things I did.... Your Drop Down tool needs to have two things.  Name and Value.  So I added names:

Then, I changed your formula to drive some logic.

Lastly, added a filter tool.

I also updated the Interface Designer to show the browse tool upon completion.  This works for me, now, as expected.  (attached).  Hope this helps,  -Jay
