Can I insert choices (a drop down list) within a Word doc
I'd like to insert a drop down list into an invoice designed in Word. This
list would include specific choices for the "Description" field in the invoice. I've tried using a table, but can't find a way to filter or otherwise choose only one item from a specific list of choices. In Excel I'd just use the filter option. |

Excel would definitely be better for an invoice. Try the invoice download at
www.officearticles.com/downloads , but if you want a drop-down in Word, check this out: http://www.officearticles.com/word/c...osoft_word.htm ************ Anne Troy VBA Project Manager www.OfficeArticles.com "dcissell" wrote in message ...

You can use a dropdown list form field, but this would require that you
protect your document for forms (which might work well or not). For another option, see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/TblsFldsFms/AutoTextList.htm -- Suzanne S.
