Default Forms- how to reset and prepare them to be sent to other people

I have created a questionnaire using the control toolbox - putting the
questions and then tick boxes/radio buttons
I want to reset the form i.e. clear all the fields from when i was testing
it so that i can either print it or email it to people to fill it in so it is
blank
I understand i also have to protect the document in such a way that it can
be filled in?
If i can get it emailed to people who fill it in do they have to save it as
a different file to send it back?
Also i have not put the options like yes or no in any table i literally
pressed the buttons and renamed each one underneath each question.

Thank you in advance

Protected forms are created with fields from the Forms toolbar, not controls
from the Control Toolbox. If you protect a form created with ActiveX
controls, you will not be able to unprotect it. See "WD2002: Can't Unprotect
Protected Form That Contains a Control Toolbox Control" at
