Default Word Opening with Input Boxes

Hi all!



I have a document that keeps opening with input boxes (screenshot attached), almost looks like an old mail-merge or something. I need to stop these input boxes from appearing as there are a lot of them coming up whenever I save etc., but I can't see how. I thought it might be a Macro but I don't see any macros in the document.

Anyone know how to get rid of such a thing?

This could be an ASK or FILLIN field. After you have closed the prompts, press Alt+F11 to show field codes. You can then delete the fields if you wish.

There are no field codes unfortunately, there were bookmarks to show the boxes were to put the information but that was it.

If you could attach the actual Word document, I'd be happy to take a look at it.
