You can ignore the request I posted below, the issue was that TicketFreeString1 should have been TicketFreeText1.

Thanks,

Mike



I tried this and the field defaults to $Data{"TicketFreeString1";}>

Here is what I have in the relevant section of AgentFreeText.dtl:

<td><select name="FreeText1">

<option selected

value="$Data{"TicketFreeString1";}">$Data{"TicketFreeString1";}></option>

        <option>Breakfix</option>


Thanks,

Mike
