That's because there isn't one. A formfield only ever has the bookmark you (or Word) give it - you can't choose an existing bookmark that's been assigned somewhere else.

But how do I make it as a drop-down list when it won't show the options I'll be providing? This is not the content control I am using but the one from the Legacy Tools.

This is what I have--the N/R is the one from the Legacy Tools and still has 2 more options and the Choose an item is a content control. The arrow beside it is what I am not seeing in the Legacy drop-down to show the options.
