It’s only later that we realize we could cook up so much more with tools available under MS Word, MS Excel, and MS PowerPoint etc. This is a very basic tutorial on how to easily put together an interactive form with the help of Microsoft Word 2010.

MS Office 2010 adds another by letting you link MS Word 2010, and MS PowerPoint to OneNote 2010. This linking allows you to refer back to either the note or the main document by clicking on the link.
