    Look at the documentation of EVALUATE function. And test it to see what happens when changing client language...

    Use FORMAT..
    Like... 
    TextVar:=FORMAT(optionvar);

    It's not possible out of the box to use SELECTSTR to return an Option/Integer value.
    But you can create a new function which will do this.

    I tried like this:

    EVALUATE("Document Type",'Credit Memo');

    Also, evaluate can be used with IF.

    IF evaluate the begin
    end else
    begin
    end
