Thank-you, everyone, for trying to help.

That was enough to look it up. It is available for windows-7 (but not Linux); it is free; but patching/updating is not user-controllable. I don't know if it allows the user to fill in dorms.

Red, white, or rose? Based on what Samuel said earlier in this thread, I wonder if it would work even on Everclear!
(just kidding)

This is not a question of file permissions (like those that can be changed by "chmod"). This is a different kind of permissions problem. To be sure, I checked the file's permissions, and I have both read and write permissions. I also tried your suggestion to run evince as root; I still could not fill in the form.

Next week, I will try to find the form in the company's web site; hopefully they provide a web page for filling it in. Otherwise, I'll have to print the form, fill it in by hand, and snail mailing it back to the company.
