I am a Trainer for a trucking company. I have some forms that I scanned into
MS Word and I need to be able to edit them. This would alow me add names and dates where needed. Then I wouldn't have to build the form from scratch. Thanks for your assistance. |

You need to use OCR software and then you need to convert the Word doc to a
form. This is not something that you can do with one or two clicks. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Herb" wrote in message news ![]() I am a Trainer for a trucking company.

As JoAnn says this is not a five minute job. If you have a lot of this type
of thing to do, then you need a specialised application. One that works very well is the ABBYY Form Filler which comes with some versions of Finereader. You still have to add the text fields, but it is much quicker and easier than attempting it in Word. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Herb wrote: I am a Trainer for a trucking company.
