Dynamically changing drop-down list based on selection? (Word Form)

[laurarem]

Hello there.


I'm trying to create a Word Form Template with drop-down lists. What I want to happen is the following: I want the contents (selection choices) of the drop-down list to change depending on whether or not a checkbox has been checked. Is this even possible, or do I need to use VBA (something which I haven't done before). Examples would be appreciated.

Hi laurarem,

As you're using Word 2007, your checkbox options are limited to userforms, formfields and ActiveX controls. Which are you using? An alternative that works with Word 2007 is to use a content control dropdown with 'checked' and 'unchecked' Wingding character options. And yes, vba would be required for any of the possible approaches.
