The add-in is not required, it was just a suggestion to avoid re-inventing the wheel.
If your data is in a Word document, it would make more sense to put it in an Excel worksheet because then that doesn't have to be open and can easily be interrogated to get the information you want and used to fill a combo box. The code to do that is in the second of my links.

It could also be used with a little modification to fill a dropdown content control, but as this is a template, I would stick with the userform.
