Creating Rules...?

[Guest]

Hi all,

I am trying to make word output certain data (from an excel table) linked to
a drop down box selection in the same doc.

Basically its in a table and I want it to appear when the user selects the
item from the drop down box.

Is this possible (or does that even make sense)?
I don't know VBE or a whole lot about fields so any help is good help...

Thanks.

Hi meganfelicity

Try this:
How to add pop-up lists to any Word document, so you can click your way
through changes in seconds
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/TblsFldsFms/AutoTextList.htm

That article talks about AutoTexts, and the technique pastes the content of
an AutoText into the document. Bear in mind that an AutoText can hold any
kind of Word content - one word, a paragraph, a table, or 27 pages of text
and images.

Hope this helps.
