Description:
In the edit table dialog drop-down lists, such as field types on the Columns tab or Type field on Indicies tab do not actually drop down but only show a few pixel tall blue bar, probably an attempt to display the list. 

The system does have an older vid card, Nvidia MX400 w/ 64MB ram, but has latest nvidia drivers. 

How to repeat:
Create a new table on the canvas and click the Edit button. Create a column with whatever name and try to assign a type by clicking on the down arrow to show available types.

Verified the behaviour as reported. I used Windows 2000 SP4 (all latest patches) and with AIT MOBILITY RADEON 9200 graphics drivers.

*Create a table using any client. CREATE TABLE t1(ID INT);
*Launch WB and reverse engineer a DB containing your table
*Click the small pencil icon on the table's block on the canvas
*Try click drop down box of DataType.

As a workaround, just start typing the field type and it should show up.  E.g. If you want DATETIME, type DA and it would appear.  Still would be better to fix the drop down box though.
