Default Use drop down lists to select specific criteria

Hi all,

I am trying to create within Word, a drop down box that would have a list of
subject areas that would be tought (not a problem, lol). The problem occurs
that I wish, once the subject has been chosen (e.g. Math, Science, Drawing,
etc), that in another drop down box further down the form only the grading
criteria for that subject area appears and can be selected. For example, if I
use the three subjects I have suggested, each subject may have criterias
named P1 and P2 with a requrement for each specific criteria so,

Maths Science Drawing
P1 'Do this' P1 'Do this instead' P1 'Don't do
this'
P2 'A maths criteria' P2 'A science criteria' P2 'A drawing
criteria'


When the user selects the subject area on the criteria that are relevant to
that subject appear in the second drop-down list so that one may be selected.

I'm not even sure if this is possible although I have been told that it is.

Please help me, lol. Thank you in anticipation.
