Hey Greg.
Diving into this code you posted right now.
I'm not expecting you to do anything for me, but I'd appreciate few hints.

This first macro you posted:
Code:
Option Explicit

Private Sub Document_ContentControlOnExit(ByVal oCC As ContentControl, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim arrData() As String
Dim lngIndex As Long
  Select Case oCC.Title
    Case "Name"
      If Not oCC.ShowingPlaceholderText Then
        'Determine which dropdown list entry was selected. Note: The object model has no direct way to do this.
        For lngIndex = 1 To oCC.DropdownListEntries.Count
          If oCC.Range.Text = oCC.DropdownListEntries.Item(lngIndex) Then
            'Get the data from the CC value property.
            arrData = Split(oCC.DropdownListEntries.Item(lngIndex).Value, "|")
            Exit For
          End If
        Next lngIndex
        'Use that date fill in the transposed name and fill the dependent fields.
        With oCC
          .Type = wdContentControlText
          .Range.Text = arrData(0)
          .Type = wdContentControlDropdownList
        End With
        'In the Excel data, "~" is used to define linebreaks in the address column.  Replace with linebreaks.
        ActiveDocument.SelectContentControlsByTitle("Address").Item(1).Range.Text = Replace(arrData(1), "~", Chr(11))
        ActiveDocument.SelectContentControlsByTitle("Phone Number").Item(1).Range.Text = arrData(2)
      Else
        'Reset the dependent CCs.
        ActiveDocument.SelectContentControlsByTitle("Address").Item(1).Range.Text = vbNullString
        ActiveDocument.SelectContentControlsByTitle("Phone Number").Item(1).Range.Text = vbNullString
      End If
    Case Else
  End Select
lbl_Exit:
  Exit Sub
End Sub
What does it actually do??

At the moment I've added main content control (formatted text) (person's registration number) (column "B" in the excel sheet)) to the .docm file and I think the next step is to connect this content control with the column "B" in the excel sheet.
It looks like this now - sorry but my Office 2010 is Polish version.








What is the next step I should do??
