DROP DOWN LIST WITH SEARCHABLE OPTION. SEARCHABLE DOESN'T WORK.

Copper Contributor

I recently became a beta version user after using merely 365 version for quite a while. I was trying to do DROP DOWN LIST WITH SEARCHABLE OPTION, it didnt work fully. Drop down list is working but it is NOT SEARCHABLE. What could be the problem?

My dropdown advanced search breaks multiple times a day. Typically, a Quick Repair will restore the functionality. (I had to do a full repair once.) Sometimes, but rarely, rebooting my device is needed as well. You can do a Quick Repair by selecting the Windows icon and then typing programs to display "Add or Remove Programs". Select that application to display a list of programs and then select your application. Select "Modify" and then initiate a Quick Repair. You'll be asked the usual questions for making a change and then you'll also have to either close your Office programs or allow the repair (install) to do it. It takes two or three minutes.
