I am attempting to create a form by using a form I already have in my documents, but each time I select browse to choose the document, it does nothing

Hello taxesareus,

I am not sure if I have understood your question correctly. Can you please share a screenshot on where you are clicking to browse and choose document? The following guide should help you how to upload image in forum post:  http://www.jotform.com/answers/277033 

Do you mean to say that you are trying to import a form which is in your local system?

Please be noted that you can only import an HTML web based form. The following guide should help you how to import an existing HTML form:  http://www.jotform.com/help/42-How-to-Clone-an-Existing-Form-from-a-URL 

Thank you!
