Hi Everyone
Can anyone tell me please what a "spinner" is in relation to creating forms
using Writer? I've never come across this term before, and how does it
work?
It's a funny name software developers have given to one of the common
GUI elements. Generally it's a box with some string value shown that
you can change by clicking up/down arrows on the right hand side of the
element.
There is a nice simple example here:

and some documentation on them (with examples) here:
