Linking dropdown form fields

I am working on a form which I would like for the user to be able to choose
from one drop down field and from that selection the proceeding fields will
update with that link information.
example:
Company code: (dropdownfield - selection)
CompanyName: (automatically update)
Contact:(automatically update)
Phone: (automatically update)
Email:(automatically update)

Is this possible to do in a protected form?

Please advise. Thank you in advance.

It's possible, but would require some (non-trivial) VBA coding. You'd also
need to consider where this information should come from (database? text file?
other?)

Best place to pursue this would be a word.vba newsgroup.
