Sign up form missing the state drop down to ensure they type in the right state spelling. Can you make any recommendations about this issue?

 The Xmod select1 form control named cboState is populated by a SQL select call to the Lists table that is built into the Dotnetnuke database.

If the list is not populating with state names, it may be possible, when you installed DotNetNuke, that you created a unique database object qualifier during the wizard DNN setup.

If this is the case, Xmod can not find the correct connection to the database Lists table.

By default the form parameter is configured for the value dbo.

Please check your database to see if you are using a unique object qualifier and make adjustments if needed.
