Using buttons to hide/reveal information in Word

T

Hi, I need to create a word document with buttons which can hide and
reveal text when pressed - similar to the Windows Explorer tree on
which you can click the plus or minus buttons to hide or show further
information. This way, I can have a title of a section with a button
next to it, and when the button is pressed, paragraphs of information
drop down; as well as further titles with buttons to go even deeper
into the document.

Is there an easy way to do this with Word?

Thanks,
Kevin

Easy? No, not particularly. If you're willing to work at it, see
