Microsoft Word - creating dependent forms

Hi there,

I am trying to create a fillable form in word. I have a drop down box at the top where someone selects a category of approval, what I then want to happen is that the subsequent form (with further fillable fields) changes, based on their selection in the drop down box.

For example, if someone selects 'Property' as an approval then a selection of boxes with fillable fields will come up like 'duration of lease', 'summary of matter' etc, but if someone selected 'Capex' a separate set of predefined fields would come up.

Is that something that is possible? I have zero coding/scripting/macros knowledge, but wanted to see if it was actually possible within word to do this.

Grateful for any advice you're able to give,

Many thanks
