9. Select the Input Type.

   • If you chose Entry field or Entry box at the Input Type field, enter the width in characters of the field or box.

   • If you chose Entry box at the Input Type field, enter the height of the box in lines.

   • If you chose the Pop-up menu or Radio button at the Input Type field, enter the options the users can select at the field.
     A menu may optionally contain values, which consist of two segments. The first segment is the value that is stored in the database. This value is not visible on the page. The second segment is the label, which appears within the menu. The first and second segments use a semi-colon as a delimiter. To set a default value for a menu, enter a semi-colon as the delimiter and then enter an asterisk at the end of the default entry.
     For example, in "1;Test*", "1" is the value stored in the database, while "Test" is the label in the menu, and the asterisk at the end makes this the default entry.
