Pick from list to use in a field

I have O2003. Currently I have a text field in which I have default

text and edit as needed. What I'd like to have is a pick from list

that I can select from to enter into that field. I'm guessing this

would be two fields. One with data that I can continually update with

new entries (so the list would grow) and the other field that has the

data populated by picking an item from the list (or possibly entering

directly).

Is this something readily available via the current controls, or is

there some coding involved?

Thank you.

Coding would be involved. You might start with the information on combo

boxes at http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?ID=32. I'd do this with a

single combo box control.
