How to make a drop down list in Word 2016 using an Acces database?

 

I have lots of word-documents (Word 2016) that I shared with my team. Each member can individualize his documents by assigning himself as a point of contact in the document text, using a drop down list.

Each time a new member arrivés at my team, or when someone leaves, I have to adjust the drop down lists in each separate document, which is quite time-consuming.

 

Therefore I made a unique Acces database containing all teammembers.

 

How can I refer to this unique database in my drop down list to ensure that each database modification affects each drop down list?
