drop down boxes in Word
I have created a simple word document. I created a drop down box using the
Forms toolbar. I entered the list of items I wanted the drop down bar to show in the Drop Down Form Field Options. When I exit, I just have a grayed-in area only showing the first entry, and there isn't anything to click on to choose the other other entries. There is no drop down box arrow, just a gray field with my first entry. What am I doing wrong? Thank you. |

You have to protect the document for forms; then when you tab into the form
field, the arrow will be displayed. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "Rick716" wrote in message ... I have created a simple word document.
