Select Control
Use the Select control to allow the agent to select one option from a list of alternatives.

Note that the text label for the drop-down list is not part of the select control. You must add a separate label control to display that text.
The select control is located under Forms in the control menu.
Populate the List
The list of options displayed in the select control must be set dynamically at run-time.
The list of options is read from the Items list property of the select control. For example, use the Add Item At End method to add each option to the list.
Read the Selected Value
The select control's Selected Item property stores the value of the text currently selected in the select control.
Set the Default Selection
You can set the selected value dynamically at run-time, for example, to set the value selected initially. To do so, assign text to the control's Selected Item property.
Example
The workflow below populates the Items list property of the select control with all allowed titles.
It then sets the value of the select control's Selected property to Mr.
Finally, it displays the callout.
When the callout is displayed, Mr is already selected.
Opening the list exposes all the options that were added earlier in the workflow.
In the debug panel, the Selected Item property returns the value that is currently selected.
