Right lets get started set your borders to 2cm , to give you more room insert a table (under table properties uncheck resize to fit) make the table borders = none goto Table>Show gridlines on the menu check the paragraph marker (backwards P) select your rows of the table , right click and select table properties, under Rows make the hight 0.6cm and "exact size" Then go to View>Toolbars and select forms copy and paste the bits of your document that you created in to the new one using a Cell of the table for each bit of text. (if you have a lot of text then select the row, right click >Table properties>row and select at least in stead on exact s the row size) Now where you want to have a input field for the user to type, select the cell and press the ab| button on the form menu you can mess around with alignment of the cells etc if you want/need. After you have designed your form, goto Tools>protect document> and select the Forms Radio button. This is the basics but it should give you a starting point Regards cyph
