For text form fields, you can select from either plain text or rich text formats.
For example, you can attach a macro to a Legacy form field, but you cannot attach macros to one of the new content controls.Ĭontent controls are new for Word 2007. Legacy form fields have more configuration options available than Word 2007/2010 content controls, which is why they are still used. If the form is saved as a Word 97 – 2003 (.doc) document, you must use legacy form fields to create your form. There are three types available: text, checkbox, and drop-down list. Legacy form fields are a carry over from Word 2003 and earlier versions. Types of Microsoft Word form fieldsįirst, for the benefit of users who are new to using Microsoft Word forms, let me give a brief explanation of the two types of text form fields available in Word 2007 and Word 2010: legacy and content controls.
