I'm new to Outlook Forms. I'm using the message format.

I need to create a dropdown list which has around 110 dropdown value
to pick from. However, they can only choose one value

I know how to manually type in the values with the semicolon in th
box, but with such a large list

1. Is there another way to populate my combo dropdown list??
2. Are there any limitations on how long the dropdown list can be?

Please help!

You can use the combo box's List or Column property or the AddItem method. I think List is the easiest:

arr = Split("red,blue,green", ",")
combo.List = arr

See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/propsyntax.htm#unbound for details on how to get that combo object.
