I am trying to make a template and can't figure out how to insert the shaded
fields that you can click on and type in. (You can also make little shaded
squares that you can click on to mark an "x".) Any help is greatly
appreciated!

Thank you,

These are almost certainly macrobutton fields. See
http://www.addbalance.com/usersguide...tm#MacroButton and
http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/TblsFl...acroButton.htm for more
about macrobutton fields.

There are a number of ways to create and use clickable checkboxes in
documents / templates. Some require protected or locked forms, others do
not. Take a look at the Checkbox template available at
http://www.addbalance.com/word/downl...#CheckboxAddIn for an exploration
of these.
