Use of Zero (0) in Required Drop-Down List Field

Avatar

Level 2

Using LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2.1x and Acrobat Pro Extended 9.1.2.

I have a drop-down list (DDL) on a form for entering a quantity.  For certain reasons (i.e., quantity bundling/packages), I want to use a DDL.

For one thing, if I set the default value to zero (0), that value does not appear in the DDL in the published form.

Moreover, I've set the field to "User Entered - Required".  However, the form doesn't recognize/validate zero (0) as an entry in this field, and I need it to.

Is there a trick to using a zero (0) as a value in a DDL, esp. one set to "required"?

Try unselecting 'Specify Item Values' checkbox in Object->Binding tab of the dropdown.

They are (and have been) unselected.  Any other ideas/input?

I too was unable to recreate the error/condition, so, I deleted and

re-inserted the fields, without a problem.
