How do i automatically get a column of a table filled up after having other values

Neither. Try the attached.

I've played around with the risk matrix a bit, just for demo purposes, but that's of no consequence for the macro's execution or the document's functioning. What does matter is that I've applied a bookmark named 'RiskMatrix' to the first table and I've titled the 'Likelihood' and 'Impact' content controls in the second table appropriately.

oo okies thank you so much Paul! I'll go take a look at it.
