Consider providing an abbreviated value as appropriate. (e.g., Display Name: California Value: CA). When creating these dropdown items sometimes the display name is long for the user to understand while the value is brief for information to be later saved to a database. A “Value” of “Samsung” is automatically entered. In the “Add Choice” dialog box, provide a “Display Name” like “Samsung”. Provide a “Title” for this control like “Manufacturer”. With the control selected, click Properties. Now, click the Drop-Down List Content Control (looks like that only). With the cursor in the right column next to “ Favorite manufacturer”, we will add a dropdown box.Next to each form element we will also add a corresponding “ Yes” or “ No” for each check box. Just as before, select each form element, click Properties, and provide a title for each box. Now, click the Check Box Content Control (looks like that only). With the cursor in the right column next to “ I already have a smartphone”, we will add 2 check boxes for a Yes/No option.

With the control visible and still selected (you now know how to select the entire element), click Properties, enter “Date” in the “Title” field, and click OK. Now, click the Date Picker Content Control (looks like a calendar icon). With the cursor in the right column next to “ Date”, we will add a date control.The title will be displayed next to the control to provide a visual clue of what the control is about. In the dialog box that appears give this form a “Title” field like “Name”, and click OK. Now, click the Properties button in the Controls group. To make sure the entire element is selected, click the blue tab at the left end of the element.

To accomplish this, you need to fully select your form element.

Although not critical, a good idea is to identify the purpose of each of the form elements.

You can edit/remove it as long as you are in the Design Mode. By default, the text control includes a “Click here to enter text” message intended for those filling out your form. For most forms, we want to click the Plain Text Content Control (looks like a black-n-white “Aa”).

With the cursor in the right column next to “ Name”, we will add a text control.

Before adding any form elements, you need to click Design Mode in the Controls group in the Developer tab to activate it.

In the left column, we can type in the data fields we would like to collect, viz., “ Name”, “ Date”, “ I already have a smartphone”, “ Favorite manufacturer”.

You can click-n-drag any of the table lines to resize the table, rows, or columns. Go to Insert tab, choose Table > Insert Table… (alternatively, rollover the dimension of your table size) in this example, I will be using 2 columns and 4 rows.

It is good to bring together form elements using tables.

In the right column list, make sure the Developer option is checked, and click OK. If it is not displayed, click the File tab, click Options, and go to Customize Ribbon in the new window that comes up.

Click the Developer tab in the far right side of the Word ribbon.
