Testing a form in Word

[Guest]

I have successful created a form in Word. It works when I test it myself. I
have tried to email it and have someone else complete the form. When they
open the document, it reverts to the format/detail design of the form and
they are unable to properly fill out the form. When they click on the
checkboxes, it opens up the Visual Basic information. What am I doing wrong?

You have used the wrong type of controls on the form. You should use
Formfields, not ActiveX controls.
