Dynamically Populated Drop-down List

I have created a form and saved as a Acrobat 8 (Dynamic) XML form. On that form is a Drop down List that is populated dynamically from an OLEDB data connection. When I open the form in Adobe Reader 8.1 I can not view the items in the list. I am able to see the list after saving the file as Acrobat 8 (Static) PDF Form and then opening in Adobe Reader 8.1. However, my script will not execute in the Static Form. How do I solve this?

You need to enable Adobe Reader extensions.
