Tutorial for Dropdown boxes in a Word table on the Web?
I would like to know if there is a tutorial, for using dropdown lists in
Word, to be used in a form? I would like to have the list in one column, and when an item is selected. Automatically fill-in text in adjacent cells. -- Have A Good Day Rich/rerat Add MS to your News Reader: news://msnews.microsoft.com (RRR News) message rule Previous Text Snipped to Save Bandwidth When Appropriate |

Mr. Mayor,
Thank-you very much, it worked perfectly. Is there a limit on the # of "IF's", I can use? Just curious, is there a similar function in Word as "VLookup", as in Excel, using bookmarks? -- Have A Good Day Rich/rerat Add MS to your News Reader: news://msnews.microsoft.com (RRR News) message rule Previous Text Snipped to Save Bandwidth When Appropriate "Graham Mayor" wrote in message ...

You can only have 25 items in a form field drop down list - and in answer to
your second question - no! -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org RRR_News wrote: Mr. Mayor, Thank-you very much, it worked perfectly.

Mr. Mayor,
I did notice that limit in tutorials with droplist boxes. So I am considering just using a text form field, and bookmarking that. And creating a table in another Word.doc, to be referenced. That was the reason for the second question. -- Have A Good Day Rich/rerat Add MS to your News Reader: news://msnews.microsoft.com (RRR News) message rule Previous Text Snipped to Save Bandwidth When Appropriate "Graham Mayor" wrote in message ...
