Create a Web form

  1. On the File menu, click New.
  2. Under New in the New Document task pane, click Web Page.
  3. On the View menu, point to Toolbars, and then click Web Tools.
  4. Click where you want to insert the form controls.
  5. On the Web Tools toolbar, click the control you want to use.

    The form control appears on your Web page.

  6. Click the form control, and on the Web Tools toolbar, click Properties Button image.
  7. Set the properties for the control by using either the Alphabetic tab or the Categorized tab.

    To set a property, click the cell to the right of the property, and then type or select an option, such as True or False.

  8. Repeat steps 4 through 7 until you've added all the form controls you want.

    Note  To enable users to submit the form after filling it in, you need to include a Submit Button image control or a Submit with Image Button image control.

  9. Add or modify any content.
  10. When you are finished inserting form controls, click Exit Design Mode Button image on the Web Tools toolbar.
  11. Publish the form to your Web server.

    Because Web forms require additional support files and server support, it is recommended that you work with your network or Web administrator.

Note  When you insert a form control, Word inserts a Top of Form boundary above the control and a Bottom of Form boundary below the control. The boundaries appear only when you design the form. They do not appear when you view the page in a Web browser. To complete the form, you insert other controls within those boundaries. You can place more than one form on the same Web page.
