Form Field
In Word 2003, I used to be able to create Form Fields. I can not find in
Word 2007. Is a lost feature or, am I missing something? |

Tony,
The form controls still exist, but only to provide for legacy documents. Now you have something called content controls, much more powerful and versatile. If you want to use the old field controls, activate the developer tab (Office-button, Word Options, Popular tab, click show developer tab. In the developer tab, second group, there is a button called legacy controls. You will find them there. -- Luc Sanders MVP - PowerPoint "Tony" schreef in bericht ...

Click the Office button Word Options, and check the option to show the
Developer tab on the ribbon. The form fields are on the dropdown from the Legacy Controls button on the Developer tab. The Protect Document button is further to the right on the same tab. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.
