I am using Word 2003 and am trying for the very first time to set up a form
with drop down boxes, the online help gives me info on where to type the drop
down info but I don't understand how to activate it the list. This form will
then be e-mailed out as a customer service questionnaire and so needs to be
spot on.

You must protect the document for forms.

The last step is to "protect the document for forms". See
