I'm trying to insert a drop down form field into a protected form. I'd like the user to be able to select one of two choices. Depending on that choice, that field would then be filled with a specific paragraph of text. When I try to insert this as a drop down form field, I can't find a way to add an entire paragraph of text (only about one line) is accepted.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you, Roy |

Thank you for taking the time to reply. I am not having any luck using this method within a protected form. Am I doing something wrong or does autotextlist not work within protected forms?

I believe this would have to be in an unprotected section of the form.
