I am trying to create a word template to post on the internet. I have the file in .pdf format. However, everybody doesn't have Acrobat. So I am also trying to create the same form in word. I want the people on-line to be able to save and print what they enter without them changing the form. Let me thank you in advance for any help you give me. Thanks!
 
Hi Rainman,

The only practical way of doing this would be to set the Word document up as a Word form, with formfields that users can fill in.

See Word's Help file for more info.

Cheers
 
Thanks Macropod!

I will give it a shot. I believe I remember doing something like that once before, however, that was over 7 years ago.

Thanks again!

Later,

When in doubt format c:\
 
I created the form like Macropod suggested. When I open the form on the intranet at work I cannot enter the information.

The form is NOT protected either.
