Could someone point me to the instructions for adding a drop down field in DNN? I would really appreciate it!

Thanks

sorry...where do you want to add it?

And do you mean a "DropDownList" control?

There is a way to have a drop down or multiple choice list in DNN. for example you can ask someone their body type: (thin, slim, medium, large, etc)

Here's an example:

here is the demo.ascx file
...
<asp:DropDownList ID="DemoList" DataSource='<%# getDemoItems() %>' DataTextField="DemoItem" Width="210px" runat="server"></asp:DropDownList>
...

You need a method getDemoItems() in the responding demo.ascx.cs file. The method must return an object of the type DataTable. To fill the items can be done via your database or a static datatable.
