Can this be done? Click to expand... If you mean the dropdown box on the Forms toolbar, probably not. That gizmo has a maximum of 50 characters per item, and a maximum of 25 items. If you need more than that, make a userform (a custom dialog) containing a list box. See http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Userforms/CreateAUserForm.htm for a tutorial.
