I am using Word 07 and have done some basic research on the subject.
In my template I have placed a checkbox in a table using
Developer>>Controls>> Legacyforms>> checkbox form field.
I have been able to "activate" the box by locking the document and only
allowing fill in forms, but in my table I also have places that need typed
information by the user, which when the document is locked, does not allow
this to happen.
I would like users to be able to click the box and have it get"x'd" and also
be able to type things.
Any help would be aprreciated.
thanks. |

You must insert Text Form Fields where you want to permit data entry.
