I'm not sure what you mean - the document already contains two dropdowns for data selection. Although a text formfield could be used for the input, that introduces the possibility of the input being invalid for any number of reasons and, hence, not being amenable for generation of the output.



I nay event, your other threads have all concerned the use of content controls, not formfields, and content controls & formfields should not be used in the same document. They weren't designed to be used that way and trying to do so is a known source of problems.
