https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/ref/forms/fields/#modelchoicefield """ The __str__ (__unicode__ on Python 2) method of the model will be called to generate string representations of the objects for use in the field’s choices; to provide customized representations, subclass ModelChoiceField and override label_from_instance. """ So you can define a __unicode__ or __str__ method (python 2, python 3) on your Mobile model, or define a sub-class of ModelChoiceField that has a label_from_instance() method and use that instead of ModelChoiceField. > confused about - self.queryset = > forms.ModelChoiceField(queryset=Mobile.objects.all(label="select mob") Well that line is quite confusing - I guess you are trying to set the queryset that the ModelChoiceField will use, but that is not how you do it: Foo.objects.all() does not take arguments. Model forms do not use a self.queryset attribute. For a ModelChoiceField, Foo.objects.all() is the default queryset. I guess you want a form like this: class AgentForm(ModelForm): mobile = forms.ModelChoiceField(label='Select mobile') class Meta: model = Agent def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs): super(AgentForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs) self.fields['mobile'].queryset = Mobile.objects.all() As I mentioned, Foo.objects.all() is the default, so if you are happy with that, omit the entire __init__ method.
