Filling Out Vetting Form

[malagabob]

I have received via email a security vetting form which needs to be completed on my laptop.
I have downloaded it, it is in Microsoft Excel 97-2003. But when I try and type into required boxes nothing happens, the pointer stays a bold cross. Although the selected box seems to be selected.Double lined.
Saying that when a yes no answer is required, and pointing at the relevant circle the answer can be completed.
I have not had to fill any forms out this way before, so am at a bit of a loss as how to proceed or what try.

may be worth checking the settings of the document. Sounds like its been locked or protected from editing.

Also, are you actually trying to use the online one, or have you opened your download?
It's a confusing process if you don't do it regularly but you need to choose 'save as' and consciously select a location on your computer that you will remember - eg, in 'my documents', then close your internet browser and open the saved document on your computer.
Apologies if this is something you've already done.
