Hi there -
I'm trying to create some forms in Word 2003 that will allow our employees
to complete certain fields as needed. The first problem came up when trying
to use radio buttons in the forms -- when the template has been protected and
saved, the buttons didn't work when the user opens the form to complete it.
I replaced the radio buttons with check boxes, which worked fine - however
now I need to be able to include a large text box for data entry of varying
length. I tried to insert a table and put a text field inside the table cell
so that users could type there - however if they hit the enter key while
typing the cell increases in size and pushes the form content too far down
the page. I tried using a text box, however once the template is protected
users aren't able to type in the box.
Any suggestions for what to do to make this work better? I'm sure I'm
missing something - just not sure what... Thanks in advance!
