Form Fill Create

I have edited a PDF and saved it as both a word and PDF.  I later went in and edited it to a form (so when someone opens it they can fill in the questions) and when I viewed it during the edit process it was how I wanted it.  After I was done, I saved it under a different name (in case I had to change something later) and when I open that file, it is not giving me the option to fill in the blanks.  Any help would be appreciated!
