Using the Drop Down List in Developer Tab
Can I cut and paste a list into here to use as a drop down on a form? Or do I
have to type in each item separately? Also, I was limited to 25 items,(in MS2003) is that the same in 2007? |

Using the Drop Down List in Developer Tab
With the Legacy FormField DropDown, you are still limited to 25 Entries,
though you can add them programmatically using vba code such as Dim i As Long With ActiveDocument With .FormFields("DropDown1") For i = 1 To 10 .DropDown.ListEntries.Add "Item" & i Next i End With .Protect wdAllowOnlyFormFields End With Take a look at the following page of fellow MVP Greg Maxey's website for tips on using the new Content Controls instead http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Mapped_Content_Control.htm -- Hope this helps.
