Default Automatic change content of a cell in table using dropdown list

Hello everyone,



I need some help in order to solve a problem related with MS Word VBA.

The problem is the following:

I have a car table that has 3 columns ("Model", "Year", "Price").
In each cell of the "Model" column I have a dropdown list. I want that: every time I change the car model in the dropdown list, it updates the price that is in the same row, although in the third column ("Price"). How do I do that?

I ask for help please, asap

Thanks in advance
Regards

How does the macro know what price to enter based on your dropdown list selection (and presumably the year)

Manually. I'll enter the values for each case in my macro.

For now I don't want to deal with year. I just want price for each model, so, after I change the model, then the price gets updated on that same table row.

For example, something like this:

.............

If ContentControl.Title = "CarsModelDropDown" Then
Select Case .Text
Case "Toyota Avensis"
myTable.Cell............. = "25000 usd"
Case "Nissan Skyline"
myTable.Cell............. = "65000 usd"

................

Can you help me?
If possible send me the word file (.docm) already working.
Please

No. Because I already provided code that works in your cross post and you are now wasting our time.

Jaimes,


Newbie or not, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to realize that if you post a question in two forums that two different people may be working at the same time to provide you a solution ergo one of them is wasting their time!

I posted a link to your cross post. You posted there, surely you can figure out how to go back and look.

I already used the model name as the list entry text, and the price as the list entry value.

But I am getting an error after put your code, as you can see here:


dropdown-problem1 — imgbb.com



vba-dropdown-error — imgbb.com

Please help me, coz I don't have skills in vba macro programming.

Sorry for the inconvenience

Sorry, I don't even know the relation between the forums.
So I posted the question in many of them.
I apologize once again for the inconvenience.
