Word Template with check boxes and option buttons
I need to create a word template that is formatted and
includes text boxes that will be entered by the end user with option button and check boxes throughout and it will tab through the entire document. I am not sure how to do this. I have an existing document that I need to fix. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks |
