Alright I am creating a form for a business and I am new to using Acrobat X and I am trying to add a dropdown list of the States for the address and I cannot figure out how to do it. I am not much of a coder and all of the codes I have found online are not working. I'm hoping someone can help me!

If you wish to choose Live Cycle Designer to create your form. It's really simple. Adobe provides in built drop down for US states under Custom Library. You just need to drag it and place on the Design view.

For Acrobat. Open your form in Edit mode and under Tasks, click on "Add New Field" drop down. Select Drop down and place on the form. Right click and select Properties. Click on "Options" tab and enter the US state in Item field and click on "Add" button and remaining states name in the same address.
Click on "Preview" and check your form.

Regards,

On one of my product pages I offer a free download of a PDF file that
contains multiple drop-downs with all of the states (in various formats),
which you can copy and use in your own files.
It's available here:
