Author Form Control

I am trying to set up form control on a website and have
the information emailed back to me. When I try to
preview I am getting an error "contain objects that
overlap a form control". If I remove all ojects no
error, when I just add the submit button error come
back???

Sounds like you are layering the submit button with a text box (an object)
or a picture frame (an object). Form controls must be directly on the page.
For form help refer to http://www.publishermvps.com/Default.aspx?tabid=30

Is your background a "true" background - Format menu, Background ?
Or did you draw an object like a filled text box and call it a background?
