IF field + Drop-Down list

[nightkn8]

Hi. I want to know is there a way to connect "Drop-Down list Content Control" and "IF field". My D-D list looks as follows:



My IF field should look something like:


IF a = 1 "Sir" "Miss"
but that doesn't work. I think that D-D list should have a name like: dropdownl, so I can call:
IF dropdownl("a") = 1 "Mis" "Sir"
but I can not find that name.

Although you could bookmark the content control, then cross-reference the bookmark, that won't give you the dynamic updating you can get the formfields. The alternative is to use a ContentControlOnExit macro that updates either a bookmark, or a custom document property that your IF field can reference. Another possibility is to use Content Control mapping. See: http://gregmaxey.com/word_tip_pages/..._controls.html

Well Word got it's own { } which are different than those { } on keyboard... stupid me? Also I have changed the Drop-Down list to older one and it worked.
