Thread: if then statement in word form

Problem: I would like to add a single sentence to a document if a certain drop down box is selected.

Apologies if this has been covered before, but I was unable to find anything in the forum.

I have a form with a drop down list, that, when selected, I would like to have it update a text field. I have been able to find the vba to create cascading drop downs through a series of case statements, but am unable to recreate something similar for a text box, rather than a combo box.

Can someone please assist with the code I've posted, below:

Sub FLSA_Status()
    If ActiveDocument.FormFields("DropDown1").DropDown.Value = 0 Then
        ActiveDocument.FormFields("Text2").DropDown.ListEntries.Clear
        Exit Sub
     End If
     
     Select Case ActiveDocument.FormFields("Dropdown1").Result
        Case "Exempt"
            With ActiveDocument.FormFields("Text2").
                .Add "This position is exempt"
            End With
            
     End Select
 End Sub

You'd better add code tags before....
