Drop Down on user side -- not dynamic

I am building a series of question that patients will have to answer. There are some the question is straight text in a textbox. But in others I want either yes or no or yes no maybe or four of five possible choices. The answer is passed to a text field in the database. I want for different questions on the form to make a drop down possibility which is passed to the form as a text field. I want to avoid another table or different fields for text boolean and so on.
I know that in ACCESS this is possible.
I am sure there is a workaround here. I do not see it – the nearest is the menu dropdown
Thanks in advance — if there is coding I prefer to build ancillary tables !!
