Hello all,



I am in dire need of your help. I am trying to do something to which I'm not even sure it can be done! I have a form where the user should be allowed to enter drop-down lists (combobox) as needed. The idea is either to have a button that the user clicks to add a new list (with same values) or to have a new one added when the previous (first) one is populated.

I have searched the forum and the closest I found was this https://www.msofficeforums.com/word-...html#post38461 but it creates rows in a table.

Any suggestions? A button with a macro that triggers adding a new line? Or VBA coding that will add a new drop-down list when previous one is filled?

Hope you can help!
Thanks!

One possibility would be to use the process in the link with a single-column table (which might not even have a border). The problem with trying to do what you ask outside a structure such as a table is that you could end up losing the context the macro needs to use to control its running. This is liable to happen if, for example, there are other content controls later in the document. It also become more difficult to keep the content controls associated with a particular piece or reference text, for example.
