After exiting dropdown word doesn't go through "On-Exit" sub

I have a dropdown list that says Yes and No. Theres also a macro linked to it "On-Exit" which is :

Code:

---

Sub Exit_DD_33()
'ASZ 04/2023
If ActiveDocument.FormFields("DD33").Result = "NON" Then Delete_Dropdown33
End Sub

Sub Delete_Dropdown33()
'ASZ 04/2023
ADMIN_unprotec
    ActiveDocument.Range(Start:=ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("StartDD33").Range.Start, End:=ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("EndDD33").Range.End).Select
    Selection.Delete
    ADMIN_protec
End Sub

For some reason it works for all the previous deletes but for this one it doesn't. Even tho it works when you go step by step. When just using tab after you chose No nothing happens.

Welcome to VBAX OGKro. Just wondering if you need to "Call" the sub to make it work?

The following should work

Code:

---

Sub Exit_DD_33()
'ASZ 04/2023
    If UCase(ActiveDocument.FormFields("DD33").Result) = "NON" Then Delete_Dropdown33
End Sub

Sub Delete_Dropdown33()

Dim oRng As Range
    If Not ActiveDocument.ProtectionType = wdNoProtection Then
        ActiveDocument.Unprotect Password:=""
    End If
    Set oRng = ActiveDocument.FormFields("DD33").Range
    oRng.Delete
    ActiveDocument.Protect _
                Type:=wdAllowOnlyFormFields, _
                NoReset:=True, _
                Password:=""
    Set oRng = Nothing
End Sub

It still doesn't work it seems that the contentcontrol checkbox i want to delete through this code is bothering it. Without the contentcontrol checkbox it deletes it with the code i wrote in my first post. But once i add the contentcontrol checkbox it just skips the code and goes to the contentcontrol checkbox.

The code you posted, and which I amended, is unsuitable for content controls. It is for legacy form fields, which your original code actually references.
You can't mix content controls and form fields in the same document, and content controls should not be protected as forms.
For content controls you need the following in the ThisDocument module of the document and the document should be protected as read only, with editors to mark the controls as editable. See https://www.gmayor.com/insert_content_control_addin.htm

Code:

---

Private Sub Document_ContentControlOnExit(ByVal ContentControl As ContentControl, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim oRng As Range
    If ContentControl.ShowingPlaceholderText = False Then
        Select Case ContentControl.Title
            Case "DD33"
                With ContentControl
                    If UCase(.Range.Text) = "NON" Then
                        If Not ActiveDocument.ProtectionType = wdNoProtection Then
                            ActiveDocument.Unprotect Password:=""
                        End If
                        .LockContentControl = False
                        Set oRng = .Range
                        .Delete
                        oRng.Text = ""
                        ActiveDocument.Protect Type:=wdAllowOnlyReading, Password:=""
                    End If
                End With
            Case Else
        End Select
    End If
End Sub

I fixed it. I simpy put an empty formfield between the dropdown list and contentcontrol. That way it doesn't skip any code. What i learned from this experience is that you can't use a contentcontrol after a formfield if there is code attached to it.
