Hi Guys, Thanks for your reply.

I am using 2007 and i've looked at both the drop down list box and combobox and can't find a read-only option. In the conditional formatting there is no read-only option only a "disable" option and if I use that the user can't select items.

Any other ideas?

Hello

Are you using the combo box that is in Infopath 2007. It has the readonly option in the Conditional formatting options

Doesn't drop-down listbox do exactly what you need?

And you you want to dynamically switch between combobox/dropdown, you can insert both and show/hide only one of them using conditional formatting.

Hi Everyone,

is there a way to make a combobox read only? I don't want users to be allowed to enter text , they can only select something that's already there.

Thanks,

Erin
