First, my apologies if this is in the wrong forum. I have some .oft files in Outlook in which I want to add some form fields to using Word. I can create the fields and edit them just fine. However when I add drop-down form fields, the field is blank when the file is received. I have checked the source code for the message and see the code for the drop-down form field, yet is blank in the email. Any suggestions

Try populating the field with information. There is a possibility that the drop down fails to function because there is no info to display.

Make sure when you are in forms creation in Outlook that you add the corresponding field to the read page. Tools --> Forms --> Design Forms--> select the form check the button "Edit Read Page" and insert the corresponding form field. Hope that helps...
