[rt-users] No scrollbars on long combobox

Dane,
What browser(s) have you tried? We had some similar issues with older
versions of Mozilla Firefox and our custom field for State. Updating to
the latest version (2.0.0.6) seemed to help, as well as changing the
custom field from a "Select or enter one value" to a "Select one value"
- if that works for your needs.

As for the hair loss, that is probably inevitable for those of us
working in IT!
