Fantastic tutorial, has helped me loads in creating a report document that requires a lot of data input from different sites, coupled with what I have learned with macros this has halved my time at the desk. Thank you so much, big thumbs up.

Thank you very much for the video. I am already exploring the Developer menu. It would be really useful if you can explain how can we limit the word number in a word-fillable-form. The manu is realy complex and I am getting lost in it.

Thanks for the wonderful information. This is going to help immensely.
Is there any way that this data can be extracted into Excel anyways?

@teacher's tech I am trying to create a table where 1 cell is a dropdown list, upon selecting from the list I would like to populate the date and time in other cells. Any chance you could explain the formula flow to do this? I haven't found anything else yet that shows how to do this in a Word doc.
