Default How do I create drop down lists in Outlook forms

Hi Sue,

I am still having trouble and wonder if you can further assist, since I'm
not an actual programmer it's a little difficult for me to understand. I can
add a Combo Box from the Tool Box but how do I create the list inside the
drop down? To give you a little more background, the form I created is to be
filled out by technicians in the field and I am giving them options to select
different command names from the drop down menu.

Please let me know when you have a few moments, thanks again

Add a combo box bound to the Outlook property that will store the data value. See http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?ID=32 for details on the techniques you can use to set up the rows.

Hi Everyone, I hope someone can help me. I have created an Outlook form with
10 fields which people have to put a check mark next to the option they are
selecting. I want to change this into a drop down menu so that they can
select the option from a list rather than put a checkmark. Can you tell me
if this is possible and how?
Thanks to all in advance
