Muliple entries in Multiple dropdown lists

[Haygordon]

I am a total beginner on VBA and at 77 I really can't get my head round the solution in https://www.msofficeforums.com/word-...html#post46903!




Macropod's file "Content Controls - Dropdown Dependent Text.docm" does exact what I want to do for options in a letter document using the drop down "Value" text and inserting the selected text into another part of the document.







Whilst I can edit the original control and make it work in my document, for the life of me I cannot replicate the two drop down boxes to provide further option choices. I will need up to 6 pairs of boxes.


Are the boxes used in word 2013 Drop Down list controls or legacy controls and how are they linked together?


Is there such a thing as an idiot sheet showing how it is done?
