**excelaron** · 06-21-2012, 02:43 PM

I have a word docx This is a combobox on the document and not a userform

I have a table |State |City| Address|

Display Name = State

Value = Address

So, what's the question?

You do realize that your users will be unable to use Content Controls unless they have Word 2007 or later, don't you?

For for populating the content control, try:

Please Login or Register  to view this content.

Do note that before anyone can do anything with the Value (which you can't even see in the content control), your document will have to be a docm file and the user will have to allow the macro to run.

PS: It would have made more sense to post this as a continutation of your previous thread.

My question is how do I populate the combobox with the city
and the corresponding phone number in the label from
the word table which holds the data

I chose LA CITY (also school name) from combobox and populate the correspondin school phone number in the label

Please re-read my last reply. There are some major usability issues you need to consider.

Unless all the table data are output to the ContentControl's Text property, your users will not be able to see it. With additional code, of course, you can update a bookmarked range in the document with any of the ContentControl's Value properties.
