Customize a sample form

When creating a new form by customizing a sample form, you can work with the form in many of the same ways as when you design a new blank form, including inserting and laying out controls, inserting and modifying fields and groups in the data source, adding data validation and conditional formatting, and publishing the form.

1. On the File menu, click Design a Form.
2. In the Design a Form task pane, click Customize a Sample.
3. In the Customize a Sample dialog box, double-click the sample form you want to customize.

When you customize a sample form, the following limitations apply:

• You cannot automatically create the data source when inserting controls.
• You cannot modify existing fields or groups in the data source.
• Depending on the sample form, you might not be able to add fields or groups to part of the data source.
