collapsable areas

[Angelika.Jost]

Hey,

I have to prepare a presentation for the end of this week and I would like
to use collapsable/expandable areas in a table.
Is it possible to create such areas in a word table or a word document?
How should I proceed?

Many thanks,

Angelika

one option might be to use PowerPoint... and use animations to introduce points one at a time --

In the outline view of PowerPoint you can do the collapse/expand thing -- but I'm not sure of a way to do it in Word. I'll be watching for an MVP to give us the answer.

Good Luck!

The first thing that comes to mind is to use conditionally inserted autotext
entry(s) (containing the text) based upon the content of a bookmark e.g.

{IF {REF Bookmarkname} = "Condition" "{Autotext Bookmarkname}"}

and I supposed a locked form would be as good a way as any to set the
appropriate conditions. If you do use a form, ensure that you check the
calculate on exit check box in the form field properties.
