Auto Text Drop Down List
Hi!
I'm making a form for my office, and ive run into an issue. Is there a way to make a drop down list of names, that can be clicked, then auto populate an address with autotext or something similar? The form has fillable form boxes so it will be a protected document I'm using word 2010 and windows 7 Thank you for any help |

The link I gave has examples. Here is one of them:
{IF { Mergefield Gender } = "Male" "He" "She"} converted to your use: {IF { Ref Keyname} = "Jim" "5555 Odana Road"} {IF { Ref Keyname } = "Mike" "215 South Hamilton Street"} Those two would be placed in a Word document with no space between them (and no paragraph break). They only contain truetext; that is, they test for the text in the Keyname bookmark and give you something if there is a match. It is possible to nest another IF field as falsetext, but I find that to be cumbersome and there are limits to how deep you can nest IF fields. There are no limits of which I am aware on the number of IF fields you can have in a document. |
