Default Creating a form to select text.

Hi everyone,

I need to create a table and fill it in with text. Creating the table is the easy part but the difficulty is that the text in each cell must be selected from a list which is unique to each cell and it must be possible to select more than one item of text. However when printing the document it must not show the full list and only show the items of text that were slected inside each cell.



I have access to word 97,2007 & 2010 on various operating systems.

Hi ravanelli,

Unless you want to have multiple drop-down formfields in each cell, containing all the permitted options (including a blank one), you'll need a userform whose options vary according to the target cell. Not a trivial task.
