Dropdownlist-Parsing values to various ContentControls

To use the userform with content controls instead of bookmarks, you might replace:

Code:

      Call UpdateBookmark("Description", "Widget Type A")
      Call UpdateBookmark("Revision", "1.01")
      Call UpdateBookmark("Material", "PVC")
      Call UpdateBookmark("Job_No", "1234")

with:

Code:

      With ActiveDocument
        .SelectContentControlsByTitle("Description")(1).Range.Text = "Widget Type A"
        .SelectContentControlsByTitle("Revision")(1).Range.Text = "1.01"
        .SelectContentControlsByTitle("Material")(1).Range.Text = "PVC"
        .SelectContentControlsByTitle("Job_No")(1).Range.Text = "1234"
      End With

and so on, where the titles are as indicated.

The code you're thinking of using would require all the content to be used for 'StrDetails' to be added programmatically to each of the userform ListBox's entries and, when an item is selected, retrieved from there before it could be used to populate the content controls.
