Hello everyone,

I'm new to this forum and I searched for it because of a task I'm working on.

I'm trying to create a cascading drop down menu on a word template for work. I've seen plenty of examples in different word formats, but nothing with step by step instructions on how to accomplish this in Word 2016. I've attempted to figure it out but it's not happening.

I'm not experienced with macros and I'm not a computer programmer. Does anyone out there have a tutorial on how to accomplish this in version 2016?



***Just to clarify the cascading drop down menu - I want a drop down list to have choices and then have other drop downs that depend on the user's choice.

Thank you in advance for the assistance.

You're unlikely to find anything specific to Word 2016, because what works in Word 2007, 2010 & 2013 all work the same in Word 2016. The following demos should help:
