to think people who design application forms that you can download and complete need to do them themselves just to see how annoying it can be?

Text boxes that don't expand.
Tables that you can't alter the size of.
No ability to edit anything.
Text boxes that continually expand and you have to delete the extra space created.

They are a pain to do.

My DSIS designed their old fashioned paper one.

She can't get her own secretarial qualification in her own box, because the boss wanted too many questions on too little paper.

I agree. The last one I had I ended up re designing to fit the information they asked for.

I tried to keep it as close to the original as possible but it was a lot more work. Why not just type out questions and leave it at that so you have as little or as much space as needed?

I have before now, just printed off the blank page and wrote in the information by hand and sent it by post with an explanation why.

Boxes, may look a little pretty but are a pain in the arse.
