G'day "Vineet Gupta, MD" Vineet Gupta, ,

You can't have it both ways, so smart forms design sees the use of a
setup like this (I am sure you would have seen a form like this in
hardcopy before):

Dropdown option 1 Other [Text field]
Dropdown option 2
Dropdown option 3
Dropdown option 4
Other

"Vineet Gupta, MD" Vineet Gupta,

reckoned:

I have read the previous listing on setting up a combobox in Word, but am
still haveing some problems. I want to create a form in which the user can
select the field and get a drop down list to choose common answers from. I
woul also like them to have the ability to fill out something new if it is
not available on the list.

How can I present a list to the user, but still allow the user to manually
enter in information if the list does not suit them?

thankjs
