Hi Guys,

I have a word document with a table.
I use the developer tools - drop down list to populate some fields.
However there is a particular field where i need a data source as there are over one thousand companies to search through - i have a csv. I want users to click on this field ( with some control ), select the company and it must appear.

I also need this for other fields where ihave a datasource in CSV format. Is there anyway in Word to get data from another source where users can select them and they appear?
 

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
