Hi bigbird69,

Upon opening your document, I found that you've used ActiveX Controls, Formfields and a Content Control for data entry. You really should stick to just one kind - preferably Formfields or Content Controls.

If the document is to be used by people who don't have access to Word 2007 & later, you should only use Formfields. That, of course, rules out using the date picker.

Furthermore, if the user has a Mac with Office 2008, they won't have any macro support.

I'd also suggest that, rather than forcing the document to be saved to the user's TEMP folder, you give them the option of where to save.

The attached template uses formfields, plus a macro that intercepts the document close event to prompt the user to email it. As only a saved document can be emailed, the user is also given the option to save it.
