ActiveX controls you can use on a form

You use the Control Toolbox to insert ActiveX controls in a form that users will view and complete in Microsoft Word.

Note The controls in the Control Toolbox do not function in many browsers, so it is recommended that you use them for forms that will be filled out in Microsoft Word, not for Web forms.

Controls
Check Box Insert a check box next to an independent option that you select or clear. Also, insert a check box next to each item in a group of choices that are not mutually exclusive ù that is, you can select more than one.
Spin Button Insert a spin control that lets a user increment or decrement a value.
Scroll Bar Insert a scroll bar next to a list box that contains more items than are visible in the box ù for example, to dynamically update the display when the user selects a hypothetical investment rate or retirement age.
Label Insert a label.
Text Box Insert an edit field or edit control that displays text typed by the user, information entered at design time, or information assigned to the control at run time.
Command Button Insert a command button that carries out an operation, such as displaying more options.
Option Button Insert an option button next to each item in a group of two or more choices that are mutually exclusive ù that is, you can select only one.
List Box Insert a box that displays available choices in a list format. If the list exceeds the box size, the user can scroll through the list to view additional choices.
Combo Box Insert a combination text box and list box. A user can either type in an entry or select one from a list. A combo box includes a scroll bar.
Toggle Button Insert a toggle button that switches between states ù for example, to switch from showing more options to showing fewer options.
Image Insert a picture or graphic.
More Controls Display additional controls you can insert in an online form. If you don't see the control you want, you may need to register it.
