Form sheet

[Urgent]

Good Day,

I want to create a Word document that will be a form. Basically once
created I could e-mail it and people can fill it out electronically by tabing
to the section, adding check marks in the check boxes, etc, without
disrupting the design of the form. Hope this makes sense. Is there a way?

What you are talking about is what Word calls an "online form." Check this
in help. For more about online forms, follow the links at
http://addbalance.com/word/wordwebresources.htm#Forms or
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/FillinTheBlanks.htm especially Dian
Chapman's series of articles. You may also want to look at

Hope this helps,

This is much better done with InfoPath than Word. It's part of many
Office 2003 and Office 2007 installations.
