Drop down box question

Level 1

Is there a way to allow multiple options to be chosen from a drop down box?  I have the Designer version ES 8.2 that came w/ Acrobat Pro Extended 9.  Thanks.

I am not aware of any way to enable multiple selections. That said, it would be possible to create a script that concatenates serial selections. (records and joins the selections). This could be displayed in another field, if desired.

Or, you could script additional instances of your dropdown box with a button. Or, even the exit event of the dropdown box itself.

Good luck!

You can do it with a List Box, under where you enter the List Items there's a checkbox for Allow Multiple Selection. When using the box you can use the CTRL key to select individual items or the SHIFT key to select a range.

Thanks, Jono--I never realized that the List Box existed for Designer! Not sure how I missed it? Thanks, for catching my error and giving the correct answer--very useful!

Cheers,

Stephen
