Hi all,
Anyway, my experience with bug reports is that they *do* get attended
to - and fairly quickly - but still it can take a few days before
someone checks it out, especially if it doesn't fall in the
showstopper class. Also, the reports that get the most attention are
those that are filed with a lot of detail (screenshots, step-by-step
explanations, etc.).
I have confirmed that I have been unable to get this to work, without
binding to a data source (which I haven't tried) - with NeoOffice 3.1.2
Patch 4, OOo 3.2.1, OOo 3.3.0 final, and LibO 3.3.1 RC2.
Either we are all doing something wrong (like Barbara I tried every
which way imaginable to get the list entered), or else the functionality
has ceased to work correctly.
FYI, binding listboxes to datafield lists of results via listboxes has
broken, been repaired, broken again with successive versions of OOo from
3.1.x through 3.2.1 to 3.3.x. I haven't tried my old db forms recently
to see if the problem has come back again.

Hello
To create a list for a 'Listbox' or Combobox':
On 'Control' toolbar select 'Design View'
Right Click on Listbox control: Select 'Control'
'General' tab
Scroll down to 'List Entries'
Type in first entry. e.g. Tom
Shift Enter
Type in next entry. e.g. Ted
etc...
This builds the list.

Another person with an excellent name. I almost always sign-off the same way as

different Toms. Good work chap.
