   Hey there,

   Is there a way to change the default text that appears in a drop down menu?

   Right now, it just says, "Select"

   How can I change that to say "Select One:" or something else?

   Thanks!

   The first option of a select field type can be in brackets to indicate that it must be selected,
   example: Color:,[Please select];Red;Green;Blue

   Let me try to be clearer about my question--

   When I create a drop-down menu, the default text says "Select"

   Can I change that default text? If so, how?

   Putting [Please select] in brackets next to one of my drop-down options doesn't change the initial default drop-down menu text.

   Thanks!

   Hello--

   I'm following up on this topic.

   Is there any way to change the default "Select" text that automatically appears in a contact form's drop down menu to something else, like "Select One:"?

   Sorry for the delay. On the form edit page is a label setting you can change.

   Look for these two labels, of you add a new label, it replaces the default text.
