SharePoint Drop Down List Other Option
Hi We have a Sharepoint List and have a field set to "Choice" In option we have the 3 drop down options with the last one being "other" We have Allow 'Fill-in' choices tick to YES We basically want people to be able to being a list of the top 3 most common options but if they need they can type in a answer. This works, however during testing we noticed that when we put in a manual entry for the "other" it saves it and then next time we add another new list the previously added "other" option is added to the drop down this. eg original drop down option 1 2 3 other Create a new item in the list and during the creation of the entry on the drop down list manually add a entry of 4 When you create another new item you dropdown will now give the following option 1 2 3 4 ** other So 4 was added because there is a item in the list with the number 4 in Is there a way to stop this happening, so the drop down list is always kept to 1 2 3 other But also allow us to manually add a entry?
