You have to do your conditioning on every single element in your ddl. It's a little effort but it's worth it :DRe: Dropdownlistboxhttps://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/8385.aspxTue, 29 Nov 2005 21:45:50 GMT033a2e2d-04e2-4a9d-be01-a4634161eefd:8385Ben0https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/8385.aspxhttps://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=41&PostID=8385Shouldn't make any difference.

Place a text box next to the ddl. Add the following conditional formatting to the ddl "name of ddl" contains "other" hide this control and this to the text box "name of textbox" does not contain "other" hide this control. Just tried it and it works perfect.Re: Dropdownlistboxhttps://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/8381.aspxTue, 29 Nov 2005 21:23:46 GMT033a2e2d-04e2-4a9d-be01-a4634161eefd:8381Matt Faus0https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/8381.aspxhttps://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=41&PostID=8381Why don't you make one of your items in the DDL "Other..." and when this item is selected, display a textbox that allows the user to type in their custom selection.<br /><br />Am I understanding your question correctly?<br /><br />---------------<br />Matt Faus<br />Dropdownlistboxhttps://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/5141.aspxTue, 29 Nov 2005 21:07:17 GMT033a2e2d-04e2-4a9d-be01-a4634161eefd:5141Sulla0https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/5141.aspxhttps://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=41&PostID=5141Is there a way to configure a dropdownlistbox control to allow the user to type if their choice is not in the list?
