Default linking building blocks to content controls

Hi, Joe. I'm not familiar with the term "building blocks" (at least assuming
it has technical connotation), but if you're talking about what we call
"conditional dropdowns", perhaps this knowledgebase by article Gerry Knight
will help you:

is there any way to link a content control drop down list to a building
blocks gallery and category?

i had alot of autotext that was linked to Styles. So, a user could right
click and see the choices for that style thru the autotextlist fields.

i would like to migrate this over to building blocks, but, i don't want to
have to fish thru hundreds of choices. can the building blocks be linked to
a content control field? The i could present the user with a short list of
choices?

if anyone knows of an example, let me know.
