I have MS Office on CXOffice. I could test the file for you. Tell me
what to look for. Send the file off list.

Crystle,
Thanks, I have sent the document to you off-list.
If you open it in MS Word you can fill in the boxes without any error
messages.
If you open it in OO Writer and start to fill in, say your name, you
get an OO error message that the document is readonly and you can't
change it. Then go to Format/Sections. You will see that the document
is in two sections, each of which is Write Protected. Unprotect each
section and you will be able to fill in the form just like in MS Word.
Regards, Harold
Harold:
When I am OOo, I can click on the grey shaded areas. Then a pop up box
appears. I can type in that (eg. my name) and when I hit okay, it 'fills
in the form'.
I have not 'unprotected' anything. Is this not a workable solution?
The only issue would be that you can't tab between the form fields.

You can even select the check boxes in OOo by clicking them. I saved the
file, opened it in Word, and all my changes (stuff I entered in, check
boxes) appeared as I had type / set.
Seems like this works for me.
