Hi there,
I am trying to get a text field to display the exact contents of a dropdown selection. I need to do this because the drop down selections are too long to display. As an example, if a user selects "little red riding hood" the drop down menu will only display "little red rid". I need a text field to display (with text wrap) "Little red riding hood".
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I am using windows vista and adobe acrobat 10.
Thanks!

A very elegant solution but it won't work for this purpose. The formatting of the finished product will look to janky. Thanks though... any one know of a script that might work for this purpose?

Use this code as the custom calculation code of your text box (adjust the name of the combo-box, of course):
event.value = this.getField("Combo Box1").value;
event.value = this.getField("Combo Box1").value;
