Constructing online forms
Forms are very useful for collecting information, thus restricting users so that they can only fill in the required information without being able to change the format of the document. To begin the process of constructing a form, you will either need a new document, an existing document, or a template to base the form on. When we design our form in Word 2021, we can add content, such as drop-down lists of choices, textboxes, checkboxes, date fields, and content controls using the Developer tab.
Preparing the form layout
We will design a form for colleagues to fill in at our company. This form will be added to our intranet page so that colleagues can sign up to do volunteering work within the local community. Office 2021 has some new form templates, which can be downloaded to save time. Visit the forms available within Word 2021 by following the next steps:
- Click on File | New.
- Locate Search for online templates, then click to type a keyword...
