Create Drop-Down Combo Boxes in Microsoft Word

In this Microsoft Word tutorial, I will show you how to create drop-down boxes that allow users to select from a list of options within a Word document. We'll cover everything from enabling the Developer tab to inserting and customizing a Combo Box Content Control, commonly referred to as a drop-down. You will also learn how to populate it with a list of items, adjust its appearance, and save your document with the embedded drop-down box. This tutorial will help enhance your Word documents by adding interactive elements without the need for VBA coding.

In the extended cut, we will learn how to pull data from your Access database to fill up a Word document with lists such as customer names and products.
