The Microsoft Word fill-in form should be used as follows:

  4. When you have completely finished all entries and the focus has returned to the beginning of the document, choose Save As and specify a filename and location.

  5. If you wish to edit the form, you must choose Tools, Unprotect Document.

  6. If you have edited the document you must resave.

  7. Print the document.

Other Formats of the Form

The other three documents are for printing hardcopy forms that can be filled-in manually. Editing can be performed on these documents but the user is urged to preserve existing text and formatting when doing so. The only computer keyboard entry form supported by the AOC is the Microsoft Word Format Fill-in Form.
