Hi Graham,

I cannot thank you enough for this, this is in fact what I had in mind.

I've addressed some of your comments below:

1. As you can only make one selection from a combo box, the only justification for having four rich text controls would be if the four related paragraphs are scattered around the document. Otherwise, you could put the related values in just one control.

1. I read somewhere that having separate controls would be the way to go about accomplishing this but now that you've mentioned it, having all of the paragraphs in one control makes way more sense as they are located within the same cell. Although for the life of me, I have no idea how to write the syntax for that. (Btw yes it is a template)

2. As you point out, a combo box allows for user entry. What do you want entered if the user enters in a non-standard text?

2. If the user enters a non-standard text, it would be ideal if the control with the paragraph remains blank and allows the user to input their own paragraph.

Side note: Would it also be possible to map multiple controls to a selected option within the initial combo box? If so, how would I go about doing that?

Thank you once again for this. Any further feedback would be much appreciated!

Best
Aarish
