Default Show/Hide content based on dropdown value

I have a word document and I am required to show different text based on what the value of the dropdown is.

I've created a dropdown, Dropdown1, which has three options: "FIRST" "SECOND" "THIRD".

All three options will display different text.

I read here: "https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/word-2003-using-a-dropdown-to-show-hide-a-table/71da1c6e-09a5-43d8-adf9-c688956c8abe?page=1" that all I need to include is this:

{If {Dropdown} = "FIRST" "TEXT TO SHOW HERE"}

This does nothing at all. I am using the brackets generated by Ctrl + F9.

Am I putting this code in the wrong place? where is the right place?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks
Adam
