Hi Duncan Have done this before once, and although its not ideal it works OK.
The main downside for the customer is that they then have to manually deal with the forms, which I felt at the time (and still do) more or less completed defeats them having a web based system, but hey it worked and they are happy :) HTH Mark -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 29 October 2003 10:30 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ cf-dev ] OT - MS Word forms Is it possible to create a form in a Word document, similar to what we're used to in HTML forms? I see it has some form controls (text box, drop-down etc), but I've never done anything with these; they don't seem that easy to customise but I guess it's a case of playing around with the styles. Basically got a client with some big forms currently in Word documents, and I'm considering just using these as the basis for the actual forms, rather than try and do it all online (they've got some complicated things going on in the form) - then users download the .doc, fill out the form and upload the file. Is this stupid/unwise, any other suggestions? It's safe to assume the end users will have PC's and Word.
