Hello all.

I have a very long form (17 pages to be exact) that I am creating.  I
find myself doing the same thing over and over again.  That is putting
a dropdown list control on the form, setting up the 3 values for it.
Each and every time.  Can't I create a custom control based on the
dropdown list that has the settings I use all the time for the drop
down list already?  So I can just 'drop' and move on to the next?

Thanks a bunch!

If I understood your question correctly, then you can do the following:

Create a template part with a drop down in it and add the default three
values, that you want to be included, in the drop down list. Use this
template part in your form where ever you want.
