How do I do this
I want set up a word document that a user can go on and tab from one textbox to the next imputting details. I have a picture that I want to lock to the background so this cannot be amended by all users and just allow them to enter details in the text boxes. Is this possible. Can I also set the order of the text boxes to tab to??
This is basically a form that needs filling in but I don't want users to be able to amend any set up, just to enter details only |

How do I do this
Please don't steel other users' threads: start your own thread as this will
now confuse the originator. Configure Windows Mail to access your email account first. Check that it works. Set Windows Mail as the default mail program and check the settings as described in the second method in the article at; http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/918792 If that fails, use method 3. -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP "Jay Freedman" wrote in message ...

How do I do this
I'm seeing the post by "evenstevens" as the original question, Terry, and I
fail to see how your answer has any relevance to that question. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "Terry Farrell" wrote in message ...

Suzanne
I won't even begin to understand what has happened here! I was replying to another 'new' message that had been tagged onto this thread. But now I don't see it either. Something obviously went wrong with what I selected and what I replied to. I cannot even find the post now. Terry "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...

How do I do this
I saw a piggybacked post earlier, too...and now I don't see it. It almost
looks like someone cancelled a message (and were more successful at it than on the one occasion when I tried to do that). MaryL "Terry Farrell" wrote in message ...

Part and parcel of the whole NNTP vs. Web issues, perhaps?

especially the forms tutorials by Dian Chapman that this article links to. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "evenstevens" wrote in message ...
