// Form fields are objects in the document that the user can interact with by being prompted to enter values.
// We can create them using a document builder, and below are two ways of doing so.
// 1 -  Basic text input:
builder.InsertTextInput("My text input", TextFormFieldType.Regular,
    "", "Enter your name here", 30);

// 2 -  Combo box with prompt text, and a range of possible values:
string[] items =
{
    "-- Select your favorite footwear --", "Sneakers", "Oxfords", "Flip-flops", "Other"
};

builder.InsertParagraph();
builder.InsertComboBox("My combo box", items, 0);

builder.Document.Save(ArtifactsDir + "DocumentBuilder.CreateForm.docx");
