Default Can't get drop-downs to work in a few cells.

Have about 75 drop downs in word document. All work well except two
particular cells. Is there a limit on the # of dropdowns in a document.

Hi ?B?VGltbXlWZWU=?=,

Have about 75 drop downs in word document. All work well except two
particular cells. Is there a limit on the # of dropdowns in a document.

Can you provide more detail, please?

1. Version of Word

2. HOW are these dropdowns not working?

3. do you see anything different if you put them outside the table?

Word 2002(10.2627.2625) The dropdown appear to be present but when you lock
the toolbar and click in the cell, nothing happens. 2 cells away, the
dropdowns work perfectly, as they do about 75 other places in this 5 page
document. If you like, I could send you a copy of the document or the
specific page. Tim

You don't say what happens if you move (copy/paste) these dropdowns out of the
table? Do they work, or not? How about if you stick text form fields into these
cells? Are they also blocked?
