Forms in Word 2011

[minstrel]

Has anyone trialling Word 2011 worked out how to produce forms? There
is no forms toolbar under View>Toolbars etc Any help appreciated!

Hi there

I had the same problem - found this on another forum which seems to do the trick:

Enable the Developer tab in the ribbon (click the gear in the ribbon > Ribbon Preferences... > in Tab or Group Title, check Developer). Once enabled, you should see some form controls.

Hope this helps!

Hi Kim

I managed to find that tab in the end but forgot to come back here and detail my findings. Thanks for making the time to help - I might still have been looking! Definitely enjoying the new Office and happy to switch between Mac and PC when required as a result of the upgrade.

Many thanks

Walter

Thank you so much for your feedback! I was able to enable the Developer in the Word prefs under personal setting/ribbon. If not for the information provided here I may have never found this!

Yes!
1. Open Word and go to Preferences
2. Select Ribbon
3. Check Developer option under the Customize / Tab or Group Title section
4. Click OK

You should now see the Developer tab on your Ribbon and should see your forms options.

I hope this helps.
