Default Can I Use Triggers in MS Word

As Shauna says this is not available in Word, but
http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Toggle_Data_Display.htm might be a workaround that
you could use.

Hi,
I am a physiologist and I teach both undergraduate and graduate level
courses and I have tried desperately to find a solution to this one
teaching presentation technique and all I find is that I must learn
HTML to accomplish this one function. I wish I had that kind of time,
but I simply do not, so I need expert help.

An example of what I am trying to accomplish can be found if you open
WORD then clicking WORD HELP then clicking TABLE OF CONTENTS. This
shows DOCUMENT MAP. If you click on one of the listed items, then
this shows a dropdown list and so on. This drop down approach (as
well as the embeded expand - condense capability for MS uses for word
definations) is what I am trying to accomplish. This way, in a
learning environment, I can choose to present select information, or
the student can choose to dig deeper into a particular topic - or
skip more indepth info due to time constraints. It would also be
desirable to enable the instructor to limit student access to certain
info (only available to the teacher or for a certain amount of time)
Finally, hopefully a problem can be resolved in printing this
"formatted" document where the teacher can control the display /
printing of information.

Any ideas?

Thanks much
