Importing Excel Data to Drop Down Box

Community Beginner ,
Apr 09, 2013 Apr 09, 2013

I have two columns of data that I need a drop down box to reference.  I cannot for the life of me figure this out even after reading through multiple tutorials.  Adobe Pro XI and Adobe Forms Central.

I don't want to have to manually enter each field because there are too many to hand-key and too many possibilities for mistakes.

If the dropdown is populated with the items that you want, you just need to copy the entire field from the form and paste it into your form. To do this, you can go into form editing mode (Tools > Forms > Edit), use the select tool (black arrow) to select and copy the dropdown, and then paste it into your form.
