flash drop down list with required selection

Hey guys I want to create a drop down list in a flash contact form where the visitor choose 1 of 4 predefined fields the ones they choose would then be sent within the feedback form.

I have the whole form made just need to add the drop list part

this is like something I'm after Westbourne limos where it says please choose and when you click it it displays a bunch of predefined items. But I also want it to be mandatory to select something so if something is not selected a red warning is displayed and does send the email.

I was hoping someone could put me on the right track

That's not flash it's standard Html form elements - are you trying to re-create that in flash (if so why?)

Yeah i know the example i gave is html although the full flash site i am working on has a contact form. The clients wants one of the fields to be mandatory wiht a drop down selection.

using flex would help:
Adobe - Flex Quick Start Basics: Validating Data

when sticking to plain flash:
as a dropdown menu I would use one of adobe's prebuild components, the function to validate the input you'll have to build yourself.
