I am having a lot of trouble. I have a word doc that is created with tables.
I am trying to add a combo box which holds names of people. When the user
selects a certain name I want it to display a certain picture....their
signature. I have been playing around with this for house and i still can not
get it.

' Macro created 15-11-97 by Doug Robbins to add the address corresponding to
a drop down name

'

Set myDrop = ActiveDocument.FormFields("Dropdown1").DropDown

Company = myDrop.ListEntries(myDrop.Value).Name

Address = ActiveDocument.AttachedTemplate.AutoTextEntries(Company).Value

ActiveDocument.FormFields("Text1").Result = Address

Save the signatures as autotext entries that match the names in the
combobox.

Signature

Hope this helps.
