Hi Yasmin,
a combo box in a UserForm will also work (basically) for a
combo box on a document. You might want to look up
"Combobox Control" in the Word VBA Help files.
You'll probably also find examples for combo boxes on
UserForms on the mvps.org/word website.
Also, you could go to the msdn website
(http://msdn.microsoft.com) and search on my name. You
should turn up an article on using ActiveX controls in Word
documents, and the sample file for that has code for adding
text to a combo box.

That requires VBA; the same code that will work for filling
a combo box in a UserForm will also work (basically) for a
