Create a Simple Form in Flash

2. Click to select the text tool.
3. Click to select editable text fields.
4. Draw a rectangle on the stage.
5. Duplicate this rectangle 4 times (ctrl + d)
6. Arrange your text fields (rectangles) on the stage as you would like your form to appear.
7. Deselect if still selected and use the text tool: to write your descriptions to the left of the textfields (eg. name, company, position, email, message)
8. Create a send button (see tutorial on making buttons)
   NB: Refer to the flash movie at the top of the page for how this should look
