PowerStore product options ... can text boxes be used instead of drop down lists?

I have a potential client who wants to use one "traditional" select box option for her product, but then she would also like to use 3 text boxes where customers could fill in "free form" data when ordering. Is this possible with PowerStore? Thank you.

Using Simple options, you can select to use a text box for the option input.

This is what I would need... 1 select box, and 3 separate text boxes. One more wrench thrown in. Certain options from the select box would be more expensive. This means that I would have to use advanced options, right?

Can this be done?

advanced options for the select lists, and simple options for the text boxes.

Just to be clear ... all 4 of these requests could exist for her product?

yes, that is correct.

...and different prices could be set up for the options that way (options in the list box)?

yes, using advanced options for the select lists, you can have different prices.

Thank you, Jason. I'll let her know. I think this sounds perfect!
