Dependent Drop Down's and Auto Populate Text

**GregStewartPTC** · 02-23-2017, 05:46 PM

Good Afternoon

I have created a form built around dependent drop down lists. Drop down 1 feeds drop down 2 feeds drop down 3. I was not aware that text wrap does not work in drop down fields, so my 3rd drop down field isn't going to work as I had planned. What I would like to do instead is replace the 3rd drop down field with a text field that automatically populates with text based on the selection made in drop down 2. The end document will be used by multiple employee's, so I would like to code all of this through VBA into the document rather than using a select file method to reference documents on my personal computer. Just an example of the code I used for the first 2 drop downs for a point of reference:

Where drop down 1 is bookmarked as "ddKPI" and drop down 2 is bookmarked as "ddPIP". Any and all help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Rule 08: Cross-posting Without Links

Your post does not comply with Rule 8 of our Forum RULES. Do not cross-post your question on multiple forums without including links here to the other threads on other forums.

Cross-posting is when you post the same question in other forums on the web. The last thing you want to do is waste people's time working on an issue you have already resolved elsewhere. We prefer that you not cross-post at all, but if you do (and it's unlikely to go unnoticed), you MUST provide a link (copy the url from the address bar in your browser) to the cross-post.

Expect cross-posted questions without a link to be closed and a message will be posted by the moderator explaining why. We are here to help so help us to help you!

Read this to understand why we ask you to do this, and then please edit your first post to include links to any and all cross-posts in any other forums (not just this site).

Macropod has provided links to your cross-posts this time, but in future you MUST provide them yourself.
