Hello Everyone!
I am working on a templates for my employer who wants me to make offer letters for a range of different positions and wanted to implement Drop-Down Lists and Content Controls to make it so that I can have 1 template that covers multiple positions in our company.
I have learned about Drop-Down lists (From the developer ribbon tab) and I found a file example from the user '
MacroPod', under the thread provided in the link below, which helped me immensely in understanding what I was aiming to do.
Here is the thread, and the file in which an example was provided:
https://www.msofficeforums.com/word-...html#post46903
However, I am seeking assistance from anyone in regards to the following:
I want to have a drop-down list that has a list of specific job positions, and for each job position, I want it to auto generate a job description of that same position wherever it needs to be mentioned, along with
bullets,
bolding, and
specific text font color.
I also want to mention that I am not familiar with how to use Macros, nor did I see or understand how 'MacroPod' made it so that their drop-down list 'values' appeared on another 'Content Controlled' box, per se, from the file provided in the thread that I linked above. So if someone can explain that to me, that would be immensely helpful.
Example of what I want:
If I select, from a drop-down list, a position called '
Project Coordinator', I want it to auto generate the following:
Roles & Responsibilities
- Inputs new customer accounts; price lists ensuring the data is up to date
- Establishes new resources with price lists ensuring the data is up to date
- Answers phones and responds to client as well as resource requests and inquiries.
Required Qualifications
- Associate Degree with 3-5 years of relevant experience, or a combination of education and experience
- Proficiency with MS Office
- Proven ability to multitask; meticulous attention to detail
And if I select another position, I would get a similar format, but with different Roles & Responsibilities and Required Qualifications.
I would greatly appreciate the assistance and instruction anyone can provide!
