Changing field type in Contacts
 

Is it possible to change the Profession field to one with a closed set of
options in a drop down window?

Can you point me in the right direction if so.

V2003, Exchange server.

Thanks

Changing field type in Contacts
 

What you're describing is not a change of a field's data type (which is not possible) but displaying a property with a different control. That is certainly possible by modifying the contact form. THese pages should help you get started:
