Microsoft Word offers users three types of form fields to gather information: text form fields, check box form fields and drop-down form fields. Which form field you employ depends on what kind of information you want to solicit. For example, the text form field is designed to collect information when delineated choices exist. Conversely, the drop-down form offers respondents a list of choices. The check box form allows the respondent to choose from one or more responses from a series. If you don’t need form fields in your document, it is easy to turn them off. Writer Bio
