Can a text form field be dependent on a drop-down?

Yes, it is possible if macros are enabled.

It is easier if you used Content Controls instead of legacy form fields though.

I have not written macros before, but would like to learn. How would you write one to read a user’s drop down selection of “United States”, then auto populate several fields with “US”?
