When adding a custom "table" field to a Constituent Contact Form, make the list be a dropdown that would expand, instead of the entire list appearing.

    We'd like to collect information on activities our alumni were involved in as students. The table entries list is quite long but alumni may need to select multiple activities, so it would be ideal to have the list expand if an alum chooses to complete that question.

    Hi Mary,

    Check your custom field setup in RENXT. If you select "only allow one per record" this will display on your Constituent form as a dropdown. If you do not select this, it will display with the checkbox list.

    Give this a try and let us know if it works out for you. Thanks!
