Create Fillable Forms in MS Word

Create Fillable Forms

Fillable forms in Microsoft Word allow you to create documents that others can fill in with their own information. 

To create a fillable form in Word:

1. Create a new document or open an existing one
2. Click the "Developer" tab on the ribbon (if not visible, you need to enable it in "File" > "Options" > "Customize Ribbon")
3. Click the "Legacy Tools" button
4. Choose "Text Form Field" or "Check Box Form Field" from the drop-down menu
5. Click and drag in your document to insert the form field
6. Right-click the form field and choose "Properties" to specify options such as the default text, character limit, and whether the field is required
7. Repeat steps 4-6 for each additional form field you want to add
8. To lock the form to prevent accidental changes, click the "Restrict Editing" button in the "Protect" group on the "Developer" tab

Note: You can also use Microsoft Forms or third-party forms builders to create and distribute fillable forms.
