Ok, so I have sent a copy of this to my home and opened it on my PC and laptop and no problems so guessing this is going to be fine now and that for whatever reason the couple of PC's I have looked at it on at work have some sort of setting that is different that causes the corruption. The idea of the application is that pages 1-3 are completed and emailed back and paeg 4 is to be printed, filled in and faxed or sent back by post. So it wouldnt work if PDF and we already have one on our website, the idea was to change to this format to make it easier for the students and for us to administrate. So for now I am going to close this as complete, unless I get an influx of people telling me otherwise when I put it on the website! Ive also made the font changes as suggested, not sure why they would have changed whilst I was making this form but hey-ho. Thanks again for all your input and I'm sure I'll be back with another problem soon! (although hopefully I can also offer someone some help in the meantime)

Thanks people, I have made the changes as per Rich Powell, thats really helpful thanks. Not sure of the other users normal.dot files so I think with all of your help and opening this form without problems gives me the confidence to put it up on the website. Thanks to all of you for replying and having a look at this for me, really appreciated

No, its also saved on our system and has the same problem

Maybe, I just run with it and assume/hope that its a problem with some PC's at the school

Yeah, we currently use 2003. Ive tried it with 2007 and still the same problems. I'm thinking I may have to start again

Hello, I have created an application form using Word 2003 that I want to have as an attachment for my website and it all works and looks great on my PC. The problem I have is when I send it (or save it a shared area) and open the form on another person's PC some of the fields and tables are moved about and are not in the right place. I have made changes on the other PC and saved it, but then when I open it again on my PC it has similar errors! I have tried looking at it at home using Word 2007 and it all looks fine then sending myself a copy at work and again its all over the place. Can anyone please suggest what the problem might be as I have spent a lot of time on this already and really need this to be downloadable and able to fill out electronically and emailed back. I have so far looked at the page settings in Word for different PC's and they are all the same as is the print settings so I know thats its not that. Anyway, I have attached the file for anyone to look at and I hope this can be solved. Another thing to mention is that its is only pages 3 and 4 where the fields seem to move about, pages 1 and 2 are always ok Thanks in advance Application Form 2.doc
