"pull down" options within a word table?
Hi there. I was wondering if its possible to have a "pull-down" selection
within a word table? The reason I was asking this is because I create a lot of vehicle certificate documents and am forever typing out the same stuff. I was just wondering if there was any way of inserting a pull down option in the cells of a table so I could just click on the cell in question and up pops my menu of choices that I can just select then move on to the next field. Not too sure if I worded that right but any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. David |
