How are you getting the drop down to select the metadata? I can only manage to create multiple metadata for a document or to create multiple documents defined by metadata from the new menu?

Hi Andrew,
Not sure I understand your question. If you are talking about the drop down for metadata when you are saving a document, you just create a custom column and indicate that it is a Choice column.
