Hello,
Creating first fill in form. Stuck already. Have used Word help. Need more
help.
Trying to create a form with labels and then add a text form field for the
user to fill in. When clicking the text form field, it does not allow me to
type in the field and it is very small.
Suggestions and advice much appreciated. Thank you all.

See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...nTheBlanks.htm and
especially the forms tutorials by Dian Chapman that this article links to.

To type into a form field, the document has to be protected for forms. What
you are talking about is what Word calls an "online form." Check this in
help. For more about online forms, follow the links at
http://addbalance.com/word/wordwebresources.htm#Forms or
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...nTheBlanks.htm especially Dian
Chapman's series of articles.

Hope this helps,
