To answer: Click your mouse in the box and start typing.  You can type more than one line, the text will automatically wrap as you continue to type.  The maximum number of characters is set by the form.  When you can type no more, you have reached that limit.   Once you have typed more than can be viewed in the visible area, the text will scroll up as you keep typing.  Click the up-and-down arrowheads to scroll up and down through the text if you want to re-read it. Then go to next item.

4. Submit and Reset Buttons

The Submit button sends the information you've entered to the company, just like Send does in email. If you have completed something in error or left something out, a  message window will pop up and tell you which item(s) you need to correct.   Return to the form to make the corrections and then click Submit again.  The error message will look like this

The Reset button clears the data out of all the boxes in the form, so that you can start from scratch.\

To Use: Click the button once with your mouse.

NOTE: For this tutorial, the Submit Button has been disabled.  But you can test the reset button by entering information in any of the boxes above, then clicking the Reset button to clear them.

5.  Browser's Back Button

 When a form says to use Back Button on your Browser, it means to click on the button on your Internet Explorer toolbar...usually this is near the upper left.   It looks like the sample at right.
