[RESOLVED] Populate word doc combos on load/open

[aconybeare]

Hi,

I'm trying to create a check list using word which basically consists of about 25 questions each of which will have a combo box (from control toolbox not forms toolbox) where users can select one of three options yes|no|n/a.

I want to add a loop to the document_open() event to populate the combos but am getting an error

_{Run time error 424: Object Required!}

When I click debug it breaks on the hilighted line below.
myCtrl = Nothing and Controls is Empty???

Private Sub Document_Open()
    Dim myCtrl As Control
    
[HL="#FFFF00"]    For Each myCtrl In Controls[/HL]
        If InStr(1, myCtrl.Name, "cbo", vbTextCompare) Then
            myCtrl.AddItem "Yes"
            myCtrl.AddItem "No"
            myCtrl.AddItem "N/A"
        End If
    Next
End Sub

Am I missing a reference or something?

Any help will be gratefully received

Cheers Al
