If I have data in a drop-down menu and then change the field to a checkbox, the data is erased and lost. I think this is an error as now I have to re-enter data several times. I'm trying to see how the data will be represented with the data I have entered and having to enter the data over and over is a huge pain.
Hi David! That's because checkbox fields only have a binary state (it is or isn't checked), whereas dropdowns have multiple options. You should (and definitely let me know if this isn't the case) be able to switch between multi-choice fields (which have a checkbox style option) and dropdowns without losing your data, because those fields both allow for multiple lines of options. Let me know if that's not the behavior you're seeing, and I'd be happy to direct this to the Support Team to investigate.
Thanks!
