Default Multiselect and Drop down boxes

Hi RFF,

No, but you can multiselect from a listbox control. Perhaps this can be of
any use.

Insert with View | Toolbars Control Toolbox | List Box (verify that its
name is ListBox1).
Click the Exit Design Mode - button.
Populate and set multiselect with the AutoOpen macro in your document:

Record any macro, say record clicking the B-button on the Formatting
toolbar, and be sure to choose your document under 'Store macro in'.
Choose Tools | Macro Macro's..., select your macro and choose Edit. The
VBA-editor opens.
Replace the entire macro by the following:

Sub AutoOpen()
With Me.ListBox1
.AddItem "abc"
.AddItem "def"
.AddItem "ghi"
.MultiSelect = fmMultiSelectMulti
End With
End Sub

Close the VBA editor. In Word: save, close and re-open your document.

Good luck,
Cooz
