Default Help with Cascading Dropdown List

Hi
When I modified the defined list in "Master" and "Slave" list in https://www.msofficeforums.com/word-...down-list.html to include about 9 options and associated 1 to 9 different slave options, the drop down list is not working anymore. Can you please help?

I pasting what I did:
Code:
Option Explicit
Dim StrOption As String
Private Sub Document_ContentControlOnEnter(ByVal CCtrl As ContentControl)
If CCtrl.Title = "Master" Then StrOption = CCtrl.Range.Text
End Sub

Private Sub Document_ContentControlOnExit(ByVal CCtrl As ContentControl, Cancel As Boolean)
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim i As Long, StrOut As String
With CCtrl
  If .Title = "Master" Then
    If StrOption = .Range.Text Then Exit Sub
    Select Case .Range.Text
      Case "Design"
        StrOut = "Inadequate Design,Incorrect design methodology"
      Case "Communication"
        StrOut = "No communication,Ineffective communication,Wrong message provided,Misunderstanding/misinterpreting message,Lack of/Awaiting on required information"
      Case "Plant and Equipment"
        StrOut = "Wrong plant/equipment used,Non compatible plant/equipment used"
      Case "Planning"
        StrOut = "Inadequate resource planning,Inadequate scope planning,Inadequate time planning"
      Case "Error/Violation"
        StrOut = "Poor workmanship,Non-compliance with plant/equipment's O&MM recommendations,Lack of supervision,Non-compliance with work methodology,Non-compliance with specification/acceptance criteria,Non-compliance with documented procedure/process,Unexpected Machine/Equipment Operational Failure,Operator Error,Operator lack of experience/competency/skill"
      Case "Materials Availability and Suitability or Quality of Material"
        StrOut = "Using non-approved material,Poor quality material,Defective material used"
      Case "Congestion/Restriction/Access"
        StrOut = "Inadequate space,Restrictions in place,Inadequate access"
      Case "ITP/Process Control"
        StrOut = "Lack of adoption of ITP control,Non-compliance with an ITP control"
      Case "Abnormal operational situation/condition"
        StrOut = "Inclement Weather Condition"
      Case "Document Control Management"
        StrOut = "Using superseded document,Non-availability of IFU document"
      Case "Subcontractor Management"
        StrOut = "Requirement not communicated to subcontractor,Lack of supervision on site"
      Case Else
        .Type = wdContentControlText
        .Range.Text = ""
        .Type = wdContentControlDropdownList
    End Select
    With ActiveDocument.SelectContentControlsByTitle("Slave")(1)
      .DropdownListEntries.Clear
      For i = 0 To UBound(Split(StrOut, ","))
        .DropdownListEntries.Add Split(StrOut, ",")(i)
      Next
      .Type = wdContentControlText
      .Range.Text = ""
      .Type = wdContentControlDropdownList
    End With
  End If
End With
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Default Macro not working in my drop down list

Hi Paul
Thank you for your response.
Can you please look into the attached why it is not working? is it related to the format because the cells are horizontal?
Thank you for your time.

There is no code in your attachment...

In any event, if you're going to have multiple 'master' and 'slave' content controls, you'll need to change the way you reference them in order to maintain the correct relationships between them.
