Smile Display paragraph of text based on value selected in combo

Hi,



Problem #1

I need to display a standard paragraph of text based on value selected in combo.

So, say there 3 possible values selectable in the combo (good, bad, ugly), when the user selects one of these a paragraph of text needs to be automatically displayed below which corresponds to the value selected.
So far I've figured out that I could bookmark the answers but I'm not sure how to reference them based on the value in the combo, or display them.


Problem #2
In a more complex variation on the above, I need to display more "standard text" based on the value of two combo boxes. For example:

Level: 1,2,3,4
Type: A,B,C

When the user selects one of the combinations (say Level 1 with Type A), it references the answer from a table in word containing all the combinations of answers and then displays the text below the combo.

I plan to hide this table at the end of the document and just not print it when I'm creating the final customer-facing document.

Can anyone help me with either of these please ?.

TIA
