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

Perhaps what you want is a protected form. See
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...nTheBlanks.htm and especially
the forms tutorials by Dian Chapman that this article links to.

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. Read the entire series because the option
button business can get a bit tricky.

Hope this helps,
