I needed to build a form for a client using Microsoft Word 2003. They needed it to have field that could be edited but no editing of the form at all. I did this by creating a “Template” instead of a “Document” and added text fields using the “Forms” toolbar. Along the way I had a couple of questions that I had to google and found this page; it is a near complete guide to building and customizing forms in Word.

Here’s a tool to find how and where your hard drive is filling up. JDiskReport

This tools gives a nice list and graph of the types of files and their sizes. Remember if you don’t have at least a 1/4 of your hard drive free then you’re too full. A hard drive is at its best at less than half full.  Open your My Computer icon and right click on the c:\ drive and select properties to see a graph of the free and used space.

Whats this all about??

I just built a Google Docs account, Built a “Form,” and choose the “Embed” option to get the code to put it on the website (forms are very hard if you don’t know how to program). Then when you fill out the form on the website, it posts the responses in a spreadsheet in my Google Docs account.

Seriously cool, indeed!
