allow user to add text to an already existing form list field

[CK@PPC]

I am creating a form that provides a list box that users can select from. I
also want the user to be able to add text to the form list if the option they
are looking for is not available. I'm using Word 2000 (v9.0 SR1). I used to
be able to do this in the past but can't remember how I did it. A layman's
explanation of what a combo box is used for and how I create one would also
be useful. Many thanks,

You can't use a combo box in a protected form using form fields. Combo boxes
are available only in UserForms.
