RE: Creating a questionnaire

["Goldstein, Dan" <DGoldstein -at- DeusTech -dot- com>]

>From MS Word Help:
"You can use Word to create... a form that users view and complete in Word.
This form is distributed and collected by means of e-mail or a network
share. You can use fill-ins, check boxes, and drop-down lists. For
additional flexibility and more powerful controls, you can use ActiveX
controls on the Toolbox toolbar. You can compile data from this form and
then analyze it in Microsoft Access or Excel."

I suggest that you allow yourself several hours to learn how to use form
fields in Word. You should probably search the Web for tutorials. In my
experience, once you know how to use form fields, they are an adequate
solution for what you describe.
