Initial Position of Drop Down field's cursor

    The drop down fields on my form are initially shown with the cursor set at the bottom of the drop down list.   I'd like it to be at the top.  Can I control this? I don't see a properties setting for this.

    Thanks for you continued quick turn around.

    Hello Dan,

    Can you share with us the link to the form where the issue exists? 

    Thanks.

    There are more than a dozen instances.  I have my most important choices at the top of the list.

    When you display the form, you have to fill in the "Are You" field to display any of the drop down fields that I am referencing.

    Thanks - Your Dropdown fields behave that way because of the extra line breaks at the bottom of your options.

    To fix it, just remove any extra line breaks at the bottom of both (or all) dropdown fields affected.

    Thanks!....it worked like a charm!

    I have an Excel worksheet where I create  the drop down entries and the corresponding values and then copy and paste  into the properties of each of the 22 drop down fields associated with my form.  The efficiency I got by doing that made it easy for me to screw up ALL of the drop downs at once!
