I have a drop down list on my layout however it's a bit naughty and doesn't behave as you'd expect it to.

Here are the settings I want to apply to it:

* The user cannot enter something into the text box, he can only pick from the value list I have set up

* If the user tabs to the drop down list, pressing the down/up arrow will cycle him through the options available (like in Windows drop down lists). This will be much quicker for the user.

A popup menu may work better for you: you cannot type directly in it, but it's still possible to paste into it so it's not 100% solution. However, using field validation you can specify that the field must be a member of your value list.

The down/up arrow should work, not sure what you're describing there.
