Microsoft Form

This week I created a form using Microsoft Word.  I wasn't even aware of how these types of forms were made.  Now that I know, I hope I don't have to create them very often in the future.  If I had used the help button or a tutorial I am sure it would have been much faster, but I chose to do it through trial and error.  I finally realized I had to right-click properties to add in items for drop-down menus, AND that I couldn't test it out unless I took it out of design mode.  I found this to be much more difficult than the Survey Monkey form, which creates everything easily. I hope to have a nice tutorial to use if I have to create them again in the future.  Whew! Glad that is over!

I'm laughing because I am EXACTLY the same way! I "knew" that I could "figure out how to do that" on my own, but after an hour realized I was wasting more time than watching a 3 minute how-to video on youtube. It really isn't that hard - and while SM is easier to use, it's not for individual clients. Both good to know about, though.
