Creating simple forms

[DonnaG]

I'm afraid all the messages I've surveyed thus far are way over my head. I
just wanted to find a way to put some lines in a document that will not move
and upon which one can type. Can someone help me? I do not know anything
about creating templates or Visual Basic, etc.

Thank you
Donna G

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.

Hope this helps,

No one has suggested that you use Visual Basic or create a template (though
a form is usually designed as a template because you don't want users typing
in the only copy of your document). I suggest you reread
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/TblsFldsFms/LinesInForms.htm and at least the
first lesson or two of the tutorials to which it links.
