Dependent Content Control Dropdowns without VBA?

[WeldEngineer]

Hello everyone,

I have been trying to put together a Word form that will contain a dependent content control dropdown, preferably without VBA. I found a few things in this forum that included VBA, but since the form is going to be beyond my network, there is a strong preference for the flexibility of not needing to include a macro to influence the second dropdown.

Is anyone aware if this is even possible?



Alternatively, is there anyway to allow a user to start inputting into a dropdown list and the options are limited based on what matches the initially typed text?

i.e. if "1.1" is typed in then the options in the dropdown would include "1.1, 1.1.1, 1.1.2, etc."

This seems to be feasible with Legacy forms, but the rest of the document contains Content Controls and I'm trying to stay with these for consistency in the form to make importing into a database easier.

Thank you in advance.
