You'd have to do it with triggers. It would be like...
A hero(or specific hero) picks up (sword or bow) disable attack 1 and enable attack 2. If you dont know anything about triggers I'm sure someone here will post the trigger for you.

sounds like an awesome model. yeah using attack 1 and attack 2 one of them ranged the other melee sounds good.

Yes, Ok, Warcraft III does involve magic, but hell, this can never be done.
I thought the orbs could work ("Melee Damage Fire Bonus" ability), but now I tested it and i didn't get a result.
You can trigger it though:

• Attack1
• Events
  • Unit - A unit acquires an item
• Conditions
  • (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to Bow
• Actions
  • Unit - Set custom value of (Triggering unit) to 1

• Attack2
• Events
  • Unit - A unit is attacked
• Conditions
  • (Unit-type of (Attacking unit)) Equal to X
  • (Custom value of (Attacking unit)) Equal to 1
• Actions
  • Animation - Play (Attacking unit)'s Attack - 2 animation

• Attack3
• Events
  • Unit - A unit loses an item
• Conditions
  • (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to Bow
• Actions
  • Unit - Set the custom value of (Triggering unit) to 0

ever looked at the steamtanks?
wondered, why it uses 2 DIFFERENT animations
for its 2 attacks?
I think the animations need to be named "attack first" and "attack second"
but im not sure.

Steam tanks use 2 animations because one is attacking ground and the other one is attacking air :|

as for your question, the only way is to do like this
==Unit aquires an item.
==Item = Bow
==Enable attack 2 (bowish)
==Disable attack 1 (swordish)

==Unit aquires an item.
==Item = sword
==enable attack 1 (swordish)
==disable attack 2 (bowish)

cant say for sure as i have not started my WE

You can't disable attacks this way. The best idea it would be making two different units and replacing or using morph abilities to change to each other.
