Drop Down Selection from a Value list

[yrstruly]

I implemenetd a dropdown for a value selection of "A/EC;Negative;V/EC;Positive"
Bound Column 1
I get an edit list item display.

Seriously, what is the use of a docx ?
If you can upload a file, upload the DB! :-(

Not even what you have posted above?

I get an edit list item display.

Not very clear on why or under what conditions the complaint is, but if you want to repress edits, set the property to NO:

[yrstruly]

Thank you. I removed those comma's, but it still displays with the selection option.

Did you change AllowValueListEdits to No?

If you want users limited to list items, set LimitToList to Yes.

[yrstruly]

Yes, it swows correctly, accept for "A/EC;Negative;V/EC;Positive" Comma at end.

What shows in image is not same as in your narrative.

I can't even get that docx file to open.

I just built one of these for the first time in a million and a half years...
1;"XYZ";2;"ABC";3;"ZZY"

So I think your string should be something like this:

"A/EC";"Negative";"V/EC";"Positive"

(All strings are in double quotes, numbers are not delimited)

then the column widths property: 0;1 so the first column is hidden and the second is an inch wide.

Just use the wizard.

OP has the right to post the info any way they want. I have the right to not download a file, move it to a folder, unzip it and try to open it - and I usually don't.

I agree, with the exception of you, Gasman, Dave, June, Mad, and a few others I've known for years. It's a trust issue, no offense to the OP intended. My biggest pet peeve is screen shots of long code that could just as easily be copied and pasted.

And yes, until you download the zip file, you do not know it only contains a docx file?
