Forms
You lock the form when you have finished inserting fields and before you
begin to insert the data. Tab out of the last cell to add another row to the table (before locking the form) or use table insert rows below. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Christine wrote: I'm trying! Here's a couple of other questions as I try to build this: When do you lock the form? When you are finished or at the end of each field that is inserted? Also, when making the table, I can make it 4 rows long. How can I add to that table with rows and have it be flowing? I've tried adding another table, hoping it will "attach" to the table above it, but it is below with a blank white space before it starts. Any solutions? Thank you for your help!

However, I could not get the typing to stop moving the next box of the table. Can anyone direct me to the basics of making a form so that a person can enter a name, date, title, possibly a couple of boxes to check and then, below that part of the form, an area where there can be typing on the left side, but on the right side, a person could fill in up to 6 lines of information without having that fill-in typing move or distort the form? Is starting with a table the best way? How can a table have 3 cells in the first row, 2 cells in the second row, 6 cells in the third row, etc. etc.---in other words, not be identical in size, row after row? Thank you for your help---this has been a challenge to me!!! |
