Fillable Word forms may not work with other word processing applications. Also, only formfields have wide platform support - content controls aren't supported on Word versions prior to Office 2007 or on Macs prior to Office 2013, and ActiveX controls may only be supported on the Windows platform (they've never been supported on Macs, for example).

Thank you - this was very helpful! I was trying to make the form "fancy", but it seems to work if I simplify it! Thanks again!
