How do I put a list of items in a drop-down? I've tried separating the items with comma's and semi-colons but nothing is working.
TIA,

Re: Populating a drop down list
As far as I know, in Writer a drop down list must be linked to a database, so you cannot create it from a list of values.

Re: Populating a drop down list
You can enter a list of values for a list box form control by typing the values in the "List entries" field and ending each item with Shift+Enter. When you finish the list, just type Enter. The list will appear in the box as: "One";"Two";"Three";"Four";"Five".
