Hope you have checked the Size & Overflow properties of the Value Prompt? If you have defined Size & Overflow, can remove and run as default and see?

When i run as default it appears fine, However when i apply the Size as Defined of other List Boxes then it causes problem...

PRIT AMRIT

You may change the Size& Overflow than other List Box prompt and see it helps? At the end, if you are getting the same shape as your other list box, then doesn't matter how much size you have defined. Correct?

I am using width as 5.2 and Height is Blank..

what i observed is when the prompt Page Loads for a Momemnt it appears the way i have set it as..

But once all the items on the Promp page is compleated it changes to the Image i have shown...

That's probably the issue.  5 pixels on a screen which is probably set at 1024 pixel resolution (or higher) leaves no room for the prompt to be rendered.  Try increasing the width to 100 pixels.

Meep!

I believe 5.2 pixel can't show a value prompt fully, no matter if it is List box or drop down... As MF suggested at least increase to 100 to be able to see the data in it :)

I highly suggest making width changes in the browser using Developer Tools or Firebug to fine-tune pixel amounts. Will save you loads of time while designing.

I used  5.2 cms which looked Fine..
