Hi SJTX,
What did you do about the way that was not responding ?
Based on your description, you want to create an InfoPath form by using a form template.
You are able to implement you requirement as the following steps:
1.Open Microsoft InfoPath Designer 2010/2013(don't use InfoPath Filler)
2.Click New ribbon , then you will view Available Form Templates
3.On the Popular Form Templates section, the forms you mentioned are here.
4.Click the form that you want to create, then click Design Form
5.Then you can start to design the form
I hope this helps.
Thanks,
Wendy
