    Re: drop-down menu in Writer (Open Office)

    There is wiki on same, anyways, follow the below method to create a drop dow list in open office:

    Under Data > Validity, you can control what people can enter in spreadsheets, and offer them help in the form of lists, help tips, etc.
    1. Click in the cell where you want the list to appear. If you want the list in multiple cells, select multiple cells.
    2. Choose Data > Validity.
    3. Select Cell Range in the Allow list.
    4. Type the range.
    5. To type a range in the same sheet, type something like this: $F$1:$F$20. You need the $ to make the reference absolute.
    6. If the range is in a different sheet, add the absolute sheet reference in front, like this: $Projects.$F$1:$F$20.
    7. Click OK.
