In a fill-in-the-blank form, how can I make a blank space close up
I am using the legacy tools to make a fill-in-the-blank statement in Word
2007. I have two questions: first, where there is nothing to enter into a particular blank, how can I get the document to print without a blank space there? I want the text to just close back over the space. Second, I have protected this document so that only the blanks can be filled in; the text can't be edited. But sometimes the user of the form may need to make some changes after the form is filled in. How can I enable that? I hope I've made my questions clear enough. Thank you for your help. |

Hi Becky,
The smallest spacing you can have in a text field is a single space - you can set the default text that, if it helps. If there is a part of the document that is legitimate for users to edit, put a section break before/after it and leave that section unprotected.
